How to Use This Evarts, Kentucky Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Evarts, Kentucky. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Kentucky or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Evarts.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Evarts occupies a narrow, rugged crease in the earth where the steady, dark pulse of Yocum Creek carves a path through the limestone-rich soil. It lies 32.0 miles north-northwest of Hawkins, TN (from Hawkins, TN: bearing 335°T), and is situated 7.4 miles east-northeast of Harlan. The landscape here is defined by deep shadows and high, steep inclines that funnel the light into long, thin golden ribbons during the late afternoon. Above the localized clutter of the valley floor, the air carries a crisp, mineral quality, sharpened by the proximity of the Kentenia State Forest just a few miles beyond the residential edges. Travelers passing through might notice the quiet permanence of Everts Rv Park #2, which serves as a stationary anchor against the shifting greenery of the surrounding slopes. While the distant Cumberland Mountains remain a jagged silhouette against the northern sky, the immediate horizon is dominated by the dense, tangled canopy of the local ridges.

Evarts carries the heavy, quiet gravity of a place built upon the extraction of ancient carbon, a history etched into the very cadence of its daily labor. The local economy, once tethered entirely to the rhythmic clatter of coal-loading equipment, now lingers in a state of transition, reflecting the slow, deliberate pace of a region finding its footing after a century of industrial upheaval. One can find traces of this endurance in the weathered architecture that leans toward the banks of Yocum Creek, or in the way the residents navigate the proximity of Cote Bottom. For those seeking the solitude of the high ridges, the Little Sheppard Trail offers a path toward the quietude found in the higher elevations, far removed from the low-lying basin. The rhythm of life in Evarts is dictated by the turning of the seasons and the persistent, unhurried flow of the water, a stark contrast to the distant, bustling centers of the modern world.
