Spring River and Shoal Creek dominate the landscape of the Tri-State mining region as it appeared in the early 21st century. The map centers on the confluence of these waterways near Riverton, revealing a dense network of early-to-mid 20th-century transportation routes including the legendary Old US Hwy 66. To the west, Baxter Springs and its northern extension Baxter Junction represent an area rich in frontier and Civil War history, while Galena and Empire City to the east highlight the cluster of settlements that grew around the local lead and zinc mining booms.
