1980 Map of Sawyer

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The Daniel Boone National Forest serves as the backdrop for this study of the confluence of several major waterways, including the Rockcastle River, the Cumberland River, and the Laurel River. The landscape is dominated by the newly formed Laurel River Lake, which had recently altered the local topography with its elevation reaching 1018 feet. In the southern and western portions of the sheet, the Lake Cumberland waters wind through deep valleys, flanked by ridges such as Pote Ridge and Goodin Ridge. Small communities like Baldrock and Sawyer anchor the highlands, where local life centered around Youngs Chapel and Pointers Chapel. This 1980s record captures the transition of the region into a recreation-focused area, marked by the emergence of the Sheltowee Trace trail and numerous campgrounds like Rockcastle Campground.
