2010 Map of Hazard North

About this map

The North Fork Kentucky River snakes through the southern reaches of this landscape, anchoring a dense network of communities including Walkertown, Allais, and Combs. The region's topography is defined by high ridges and deep hollows, such as Holiness Hollow and Jack Lot Hollow, which have historically dictated the patterns of settlement and infrastructure. Notable peaks like Lost Mountain and Peters Peak rise above a landscape crisscrossed by numerous waterways, including Lotts Creek and Sixteenmile Creek. This period shows the modernization of the area's transport, featuring the Daniel Boone Pkwy and the State Hwy 15 Byp winding through the hills. Genealogists may find interest in several family and community burial grounds documented here, such as the Nobel Cockrell Cemetery near Dice and the Smith Cemetery along the banks of Lotts Creek.
