1953 Map of Wolf Creek Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Wolf Creek Dam and its impounded waters define this mid-century landscape where the Cumberland River was transformed into Cumberland Lake. This survey captures the transition of the region’s topography, showing deep-cut tributaries like Guffey Creek and the West Fork of Indian Creek becoming fingers of the rising lake. Away from the water, the rugged interior is marked by numerous oil wells scattered along Agee Ridge and Diesda Ridge, signaling the era's local extractive industry.
