About this map

Mahans Creek and its many winding tributaries define the topography of this Shannon County landscape, where deep hollows like Jam Up Hollow and Turnback Hollow create a complex network of ridges and drainages. The settlement of Bartlett serves as a local hub near the southern edge, while smaller locales such as Delaware and Pertz are found further north along the county road system. The presence of Delaware Cemetery and Rader Cemetery near the headwaters of the creek system provides valuable points of reference for genealogists tracing families in this part of the Ozarks.

Outdoor recreation and conservation are evident at the Gateway Camp and Picnic Area near Gateway, reflecting the region's relationship with its natural environment. The northern reaches are marked by the Jacks Fork river, where Boyd Branch and Allen Branch join the flow. This 2011 survey documents a rural landscape where the placement of individual structures and the layout of routes like State Hwy E reveal the enduring patterns of Missouri hill country settlement.
