1953 Map of Salt Lick

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The C & O railroad cuts through the northern corridor of this 1953 landscape, following the southern bank of the Licking River and connecting the settlement of Salt Lick to the broader regional economy. Much of the terrain is defined by the densely wooded ridges of the Cumberland National Forest, where a network of family-named hollows and branches like Dickerson Hollow and Campbell Hollow reveal the intricate topography of the Bath and Rowan County borders. Local industry and infrastructure are evident in the Peter Oil Wells near Tater Knob, while a high-altitude perspective is provided by the Tater Knob Lookout Tower.
