1972 Map of Cotter
USGS Topo · Published 1988About this map
Bull Shoals Lake and the winding White River dominate this Ozark landscape during a period of significant recreational and infrastructure development. The massive Bull Shoals Dam stands at the north, creating a sprawling reservoir while the river below snakes through steep bends past Bull Shoals State Park and Cane Island. Transportation networks are well-defined by the Missouri Pacific railroad corridor, which serves the established communities of Flippin and Cotter. The map reveals the area's transition into a regional hub with the Marion Co Regional Airport and several remote airstrips like the Gaston Landing Strip. Genealogists will find numerous family and community landmarks, including the Burch Cem, Hurst Cem, and Antioch Ch, alongside evidence of the area's industrial past such as the Old Railroad Grade and various quarries.
