1970 Map of Morehead

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Morehead serves as the central hub of this 1970s topographic study, where the valley of Triplett Creek dictates the path of both the Chesapeake And Ohio railroad and the modern corridor of Interstate 64. The map captures the significant presence of Morehead State University, including the Morehead State University Farm and various gas wells that signal the area's local resource extraction. Beyond the city limits, the landscape transitions into the wooded ridges of the Daniel Boone National Forest, where smaller settlements like Clearfield and Rodburn sit at the mouths of steep hollows.
