USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
The North Fork Kentucky River defines the landscape of this Breathitt County region, twisting through tight meanders like Cy Bend and Miller Bend. The town of Jackson serves as the primary hub, where the river's path is altered by The Cutoff near Picnic Hill. This 1961 revision shows a landscape heavily influenced by both faith and industry, featuring the Kentucky Mountain Bible Institute alongside numerous gas wells and mines scattered throughout the hollows.
