About this map

Mud River meanders through this portion of Logan and Muhlenberg Counties, creating a complex drainage network defined by numerous named branches and creeks. Small rural communities and crossroads settlements, such as Dunmor, Diamond Springs, and Hollow Bill, are connected by a web of local routes including Diamond Springs Rd and Iron Mountain Rd. The landscape is characterized by prominent ridges and knobs, most notably Chestnut Oak Ridge and Simmons Knob, which rise above the river bottomlands.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several family-named landmarks and resting places, such as Fitzhugh Cemetery near Diamond Springs and Dearmond Cemetery north of Dunmor. The presence of Forgys Mill and Harper Rd indicates the localized agricultural and milling economy that once centered on the river. The topography is further punctuated by Coon Range Lake and the distinct formation at Blue Cut, illustrating the intersection of natural waterways and human engineering in this region of Kentucky.
