About this map

Salt Lick serves as the primary northern settlement in this landscape dominated by the complex waters of the Licking River and Cave Run Lake. The terrain is defined by deep drainages like Campbell Hollow and Dickerson Hollow, which hold significant genealogical markers such as Dickerson Cem. Further south, the legacy of local industry is visible at Clear Creek Furnace, situated along Clear Creek within the Daniel Boone National Forest.

This modern survey provides a detailed look at the interface between public forest lands and water resources. High points such as Tater Knob, Alum Knob, and Twin Knobs punctuate the ridges, while the shoreline of Cave Run Lake has reshaped the traditional paths through Hog Hollow and Reynolds Hollow. Local history researchers can trace family names through several burial sites near the lake, including Alfrey Cem and Cassity Cem One.
