1951 Map of Tiptop

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Tiptop and Evanston anchor this mid-century survey of the Cumberland Plateau's deeply dissected terrain along the border of Breathitt, Magoffin, and Knott Counties. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of narrow hollows and ridges, where life centered on the coal and timber resources accessible via the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad. Numerous strip mines and conveyors are scattered throughout the valleys, particularly around Quicksand Creek, illustrating the industrial intensity of the era.
