About this map

The Osage River and the expansive Lake of the Ozarks define the geography of central Missouri during this era of significant recreational development. The map reveals a landscape shaped by the 1931 impoundment of the river, which displaced the original town of Old Linn Creek, seen here as a distinct area separate from the relocated Linn Creek. To the south, Camdenton serves as a regional hub, featuring the Vo-Tech School and a nearby Rodeo Arena.

The northeast is dominated by the Lake of the Ozarks State Park, which includes numerous recreational sites like Camp Hawthorn and Camp Pin Oak along the Grandglaize Arm. Local history is preserved through several family and community burial grounds, including Old Erie Cem, Zion Cem, and Hopkins Cem. Industry and transit are marked by the Linn Creek-Grand Glaize Memorial Airport and scattered local resources like the Hunter Mine and various quarries.
