1972 Map of Hazard North

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The North Fork of the Kentucky River winds through this 1972 industrial landscape, where the coal and rail economy of Perry County is on full display. Steep hollows are carved by waterways like Troublesome Creek and Lotts Creek, while numerous Strip Mines and subterranean workings dot the hillsides around the urban center of Hazard. The mapping shows the extensive reach of the Louisville and Nashville railroad, which follows the river and creeks to serve coal settlements such as Hardburly, Bulan, and Blue Diamond.
