About this map

The Fourche LaFave River and its southern fork dominate this Perry County landscape, carving through a region defined by river crossings and upland ridges. The settlement of Nimrod sits near the northern banks, supported by local landmarks like the Nimrod Cemetery and Garland Cemetery. Further east, the community of Deberrie is situated near its own eponymous Deberrie Cemetery, connected by rural routes such as Deberrie Rd and Mill Race Rd.

Historically significant river fords like Cherry Ford, Flynn Ford, and Gill Ford indicate the vital role the waterway played in local transit before modern bridge infrastructure. To the south, the topography shifts toward Goat Bluff and several distinct hollows, including Long Hollow and Brushy Hollow. The presence of the Casa Mountain Lookout Tower in the northern portion highlights the area's elevation and forest management history, while multiple creeks like Big Cove Creek and Wallace Creek feed the primary river system.
