1965 Map of Alley Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Alley Spring and the winding Jacks Fork river system dominate this Shannon County landscape, centered on a region transitioning into protected recreational space. The map illustrates the Ozark Highlands' intricate drainage patterns, where dozens of named hollows like Dripping Spring Hollow and Possum Trot Hollow funnel into the larger waterways. Settlement is concentrated toward the southeast at West Eminence, where the Eminence School and local infrastructure appear near the confluence of Mahans Creek and the river. Significant portions of the quadrangle are dedicated to timber and conservation, including the Alley Spring State Forest and Clow State Forest. Smaller, perhaps now-obscure locales such as Flatwood and Venice are documented alongside local landmarks like the Culpepper Cemetery and Beason Cave. This 1965 survey, with 1980s updates, captures the rural Missouri interior as the Ozark National Scenic Riverways began to define the local economy and land use.
