2016 Map of Ready

About this map

Big Reedy Creek and its many branches, including the West Fork Big Reedy Creek, carve a complex drainage pattern through this corner of the Kentucky hills. This landscape is defined by its small, scattered settlements such as Ready, Windyville, and Nash, which are linked by a network of winding ridge-top and valley-floor roads like Ready Jackson Road and Huff Ridge Road. The confluence of Grayson, Butler, and Edmonson counties creates a unique jurisdictional intersection near the community of Big Reedy. Local family history is rooted in sites like Woosley Cemetery near Decker and Preston Cemetery to the east. The terrain is marked by deep incisions such as Woodbury Hollow and Rowe Hollow, while larger waterways like Sunfish Creek flow toward the regional river systems, illustrating the enduring rural character of the area.
