2013 Map of Cataract

About this map

Cataract Falls SRA anchors this landscape in Owen County, where the dramatic elevation changes of the Upper Cataract Falls and Lower Cataract Falls along Mill Cr define the local topography. This 2013 survey illustrates the complex hydrology around Cagles Mill Lake, featuring Ernie Pyle Island and the residential clusters of Cunot and Cataract. The map reveals a settlement pattern typical of the Indiana uplands, with small unincorporated communities like Devore, Carp, Cuba, and Atkinsonville scattered across the ridgelines and creek valleys. Notable landforms such as Corns Ridge and Hale Hill rise above the winding paths of Rattlesnake Cr and Jordan Cr. The map provides a precise record of the early 21st-century road network, from major routes like US-231 to the local lanes and county roads that link these rural homesteads and agricultural tracts.
