About this map

Buffalo City sits at the dramatic confluence where the Buffalo River meets the White River, a location defined by deep river bends and steep bluffs. This 2011 survey shows a landscape where small settlements like Old Buffalo and Buford are connected by a network of county roads and named trails such as Cameron Trl and Lothlorien Trl. The geography is marked by numerous family-named landmarks and hollows, including Hathaway Hollow and Cook Hollow, indicating a long history of local land use and residency.

Water features dominate the terrain, from the Cow Rock Shoals and Tinnan Rock Shoals on the Buffalo River to the wide meander of Hudsons Bend. The presence of Nelson Cemetery and Haskell Cemetery provides valuable data points for genealogists researching families in the Marion County area. Notable high points like Warrior Creek Mountain and Prince Fred Knob offer a view of the complex river-and-ridge system that has shaped this part of the Ozarks for generations.
