Lake Cumberland Mileage and contact numbers

This one is missing Marina Rowena as it is from the last edition of the Lake Cumberland Boating Guide. ..I hear rumors someone may be updating it and I also tagged Donald to see if he can update his copy.

New Update, if you compare below to above you will see major differences in some of the distances. About 3 or 4 months after making this one I just happened to notice. Before I was only taking mileage from the old chart to Burnside and or London Dock and then adding or subtracting distances as it applied. Tonight I found several of the old distances were off, not just a little but one was even off by almost 10 miles.

PLEASE feel free to cross check, double check etc. this one and suggest edits. ...and then one day I might get around to it. It would print best on legal paper if you are printing it. The Excel file has screenshot of the measured areas I used to update the sheet.

Added Camp Earl due to new Raftup Location. Used a general Center Point between Camp Earl and Ramsey Point.
Grabbed two more screenshots to show distances and how measured. One from Middle of the main lake where the 37.92 from Burnside to the State Dock Area was measured and shown in a screenshot in the previous post to Camp Earl, that distance is 7.36,

I added the distance from the middle of the channel to State and JRM which is 0.7698 and rounded that out to the 8.12 you will see on the chart as 8.1 from State/JRM to Camp Earl.

As previously recorded and shown in a screenshot in a previous post Burnside to the Dam is 48.81 (A difference from the State JRM main channel Measurement of 10.89)

Added Measurements for basepoints with Camp Earl/Ramsey to Harmon and Wolf Creek Marina, that allowed the rest of the calculations. (You can view them in the excel version in the formulas)

I also fixed where I missed updating a London Dock distance to Grider when I fixed all the others. Hopefully all are right now, PLEASE SOMEONE REVIEW> lol

Updates 7-8-2022 These were made as LakeDecals aka Steve B noticed a discrepancy. I checked the Burnside measurements above and compared to the chart and the LFM measurements. I did adjust a bit as on these edits I went from Fuel Pier to fuel Pier except for State/JRM that still just goes between the two.
