About this map

The Ohio River frontage defines the eastern edge of this landscape, where the settlement of Derby sits near the mouth of Knob Cr. The terrain inland is marked by a complex network of ridges and drainages, including Mogan Ridge and Kuntz Ridge, which separate various hollows such as Sugar Camp Hollow and Rockhouse Hollow. Small rural communities and named crossroads are scattered throughout the interior, with Leopold positioned in the north, Gerald to the south, and Chenault located along the riverbank downstream from Derby.

Transport patterns reflect the area's rural character, with Old State Hwy 37 traversing the western reaches and a network of county roads like Chenault School Rd and Co Rd-317 connecting the river settlements to the uplands. The presence of Derby Pond and Harding Pond near the center of the sheet highlights localized water management in a region otherwise dominated by the serpentine flows of Oil Cr and its many tributaries.
