USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
The Kentucky River winds through the heart of Estill County, serving as the industrial and topographic anchor for the twin towns of Irvine and Ravenna. During the early 1950s, this area functioned as a vital hub for the Louisville and Nashville railroad, which parallels the river and supports the local coal and timber economy. The landscape is characterized by narrow valleys and prominent heights like Sweet Lick Knob and Henry Mtn, while the Daniel Boone National Forest dominates the eastern and southern ridges.
