About this map

Salem Cem sits near the northern boundary of this Ozark plateau landscape, accessible via Bell Rd and Preacher Ln. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of ridges and hollows, where family-named landmarks like John Watie Hollow, Sonny Gile Hollow, and Sally Bull Hollow define the local geography. These deep drainages feed into watercourses such as Deer in Water Cr and Little Lee Cr, which navigate the complex topography between prominent peaks including Doublehead Mtn and Big Round Mtn.

This 2018 survey documents a modern rural environment where historic lineage remains visible through geographic naming conventions. Roadways such as Cherokee Nation Landfill Rd and Dandridge Rd provide access to the interior highlands, while the border between Adair Co and Sequoyah Co cuts across the southern reach near Flanagan Mtn. The map preserves the specific locations of narrow passes like Eagle Pass Hollow and secluded points like Hoot Owl Hollow.
