About this map

The Whitewater River and Great Miami River converge here just before joining the Ohio River, creating a complex tri-state landscape at the intersection of Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky. This convergence has historically dictated the region's transport patterns, seen today in the corridors of CSX Transportation and major interchanges at Valley Junction. The terrain transitions from the low-lying North Bend Bottom to the elevated ridges of Jackson Ridge and Harrison Hill.

Local history is preserved in a high density of rural burial sites, including the Elizabethtown Cem and the Minges Farm Cem. Residential growth is evident in planned communities such as Hidden Valley, which centers around the reservoir at Hidden Valley Lake. From the small settlements of Hooven and Cleves to the specialized infrastructure of Lost Bridge Airport, the map traces the modern development of these historic river valleys.
