About this map

McKee serves as the focal point for this section of Jackson County, situated at the edge of the Daniel Boone National Forest. The landscape is defined by a dense network of ridges and hollows, such as Brushy Ridge and Neil Hollow, which dictate the winding paths of rural routes like Soaptown Rd and Spurlock Store Rd. Small settlements and named communities are scattered throughout these valleys, including Macedonia, Gray Hawk, and Atkinstown.

Evidence of historical land use is visible in features like the Lime Kiln near Lime Kiln Ridge and several family-named landmarks. The drainage pattern is complex, with numerous forks and branches such as Elsam Fork, War Fork, and the curiously named Granny Dismal Cr. In the southeast, Beulah Lake and the settlement of Privett highlight the area's continued rural habitation into the twenty-first century.
