2016 Map of Halls Gap

About this map

Kings Mountain and Halls Gap anchor this portion of Lincoln County, where the topography transitions between high ridges and winding creek bottoms. The landscape is deeply carved by the Green River and its tributaries, including McKinney Cr and Hanging Fork. This environment dictated a settlement pattern of small communities like Turnersville and Geneva positioned along the more accessible valley floors and ridge tops. Family and community heritage is deeply embedded in the land, evidenced by numerous burial sites such as the Sugar Loaf Graveyard, South Fork Church Cem, and Campbell Cem. Notable terrain features like Greasy Ridge and Naylor Ridge dominate the central portion of the map, illustrating the geographical barriers that influenced the local road network, including the path of Greasy Ridge Rd and Moccasin Rd.
