2013 Map of Mauckport

About this map

Mauckport serves as a focal point where Highway 135 meets the Ohio River, illustrating a landscape defined by its riparian connections and elevated terrain. The riverfront is marked by Morvins Landing and the mouth of Buck Creek, features that have historically shaped local trade and transport. Inland, the map reveals a series of small, scattered communities like Central, Valley City, and Glidas, each linked by a network of rural roads that navigate the area's prominent topographic features. High points such as Mount Tom, Hayes Hill, and Wolfpen Ridge punctuate the landscape, while the curiously named Haunted Hollow and the Russell Airport reflect diverse uses of the land, from traditional aviation to local lore. This survey captures the rural character of the Indiana-Kentucky border at the start of the 21st century.
