About this map

The Eleven Point Wild and Scenic River carves a deep, winding path through the Ozark landscape on this 1997 revision. This corridor, protected within the Mark Twain National Forest, is defined by a dense concentration of hydrological features such as Blue Spring, Morgan Spring, and Vault Spring. The map documents a predominantly rural and forested region where small community centers like Billmore and Calm serve as local anchors.

Genealogists and local historians can trace legacy sites across the rolling terrain, including the Liberty Church and established burial grounds like Mt Carmel Cemetery and Pleasant Hill Cemetery. The mapping of a Landing Strip and specialized river infrastructure like The Narrows Boat Ramp and the Myrtle River Access reflects the modern transition of the area toward recreational management and conservation while maintaining the footprint of older settlements and family-named hollows.
