2022 Map of Tallega
USGS Topo · Published 2022About this map
The Middle Fork Kentucky River and the North Fork Kentucky River carve through the landscape of the Cumberland Plateau, defining the settlement patterns and travel corridors for this corner of Kentucky. Small communities like Tallega, Athol, and Canyon Falls are linked by the winding courses of State Hwy 708 and State Hwy 2017, which navigate the steep topography between ridges. Local history is anchored by family and community landmarks such as Palmer Cem and the prominent Anvil Knob. This 2022 survey captures the jurisdictional meeting point of Lee, Breathitt, and Owsley counties, where remote hamlets like Jetts Creek and Lone still reflect a landscape shaped by river bends and deep hollows.
