About this map

The Cumberland National Forest dominates this section of Laurel County, where a dense network of branches and creeks has shaped a landscape of narrow ridges and hollows. During the early 1950s, rural life here centered around small community hubs such as Keavy, defined by proximity to neighborhood institutions like Whitson Sch, Oak Ridge Sch, and McDaniel Chapel. Higher elevations offered strategic advantages for forest management, evidenced by the Bald Rock Lookout Tower and the Hightop terrain.
