2022 Map of Cowcreek
USGS Topo · Published 2022About this map
The hills of Owsley County and neighboring Breathitt County are defined by the winding drainages of the Middle Fork Kentucky River. This landscape is dotted with small settlements like Cowcreek, Arnett, and Ricetown, where life has historically centered around the narrow hollows and creek forks. The area is rich with family history, evidenced by numerous hillside cemeteries such as the Johnson Cemetery and Noble Cemetery, and community pillars like the Cow Creek Presbyterian Church. High points such as Rose Knob and Rice Knob stand above a network of waterways including Spencer Fork and Jetts Creek. These ridges and valleys have dictated the paths of local roads like State Hwy 708 and State Hwy 1202, which follow the natural contours of the land to connect these established mountain communities.
