1972 Map of Hazard South

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The North Fork of the Kentucky River snakes through the dense ridge-and-valley landscape of Perry County, anchoring the coal-country developments of Hazard and Lothair. The 1970s infrastructure revealed here shows a region defined by its topography, where settlements like Glomawr and Christopher are squeezed into the narrow floodplains and along the winding tracks of the Louisville & Nashville RR. The map records an era of active extraction and local community life, marked by numerous mines and scattered hill-country institutions like Fairview Chapel and Mines Poundmill Ch.
