About this map

Hanna and the winding course of Roubidoux Creek anchor this landscape, where the public lands of the Mark Twain National Forest meet the active military installation of Fort Leonard Wood. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of deeply etched drainages, including the uniquely named Mush Paddle Hollow, Wildcat Hollow, and Berry Hollow. These landforms converge near Devils Backbone, a prominent ridge overlooking the creek valley.

Local history and genealogy are well-represented by several rural burial grounds such as Friendship Cem, Clark Cem, and Bloodland Cem. The settlement of Bloodland sits just outside the military boundary, while Cookville is positioned near the southern edge of the quadrangle. Significant infrastructure includes State Hwy NN and Winchester Rd, which provide access through the timbered hollows of the Ozark plateau.
