1972 Map of Bull Shoals
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
Bull Shoals Lake and the White River dominate this Ozark Plateau landscape, marking the winding border between Arkansas and Missouri. The map captures the region's mid-century character, where recreation and local community life overlap. Public use areas like Oakland Public Use Area and various campgrounds line the intricate shoreline, while the higher ground of Promise Land Ridge and Long Mountain provides a backdrop for inland settlements. Small local landmarks like the Oakland School, Newton Flat Cemetery, and the Lookout Tower on Long Mountain offer specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians. This era shows the developed town of Bull Shoals south of the dam, complete with Bull Shoals Caverns, contrasted against quieter spots like Graves and Hilltop Mission further north near the state line.
