2013 Map of Crab Orchard

About this map

The Dix River watershed defines this portion of Lincoln County, where the historic Wilderness Rd passes through Crab Orchard and continues toward Walnut Flat. The landscape is a network of small agricultural settlements and family-named landmarks, reflecting a deep-rooted rural community. To the west, the settlement of Ottenheim sits along the winding path of Fenny Br, while Broughtentown and the curiously named Dog Walk anchor the southern reaches of the quadrangle. Significant watercourses like Crab Orchard Cr and Turkey Cr carve through the terrain, with Collier Knob providing a prominent topographical reference point. Local aviation is represented by the Robbins Roost Airport, located near the headwaters of Buck Cr, illustrating how modern infrastructure integrates with the traditional crossroads and farm roads of central Kentucky.
