About this map

The town of Summit serves as the primary hub in this portion of Marion County, situated along the Arkansas and Missouri Railroad line. The landscape is defined by the deep dissection of the Ozark Plateau, where numerous named hollows like Stave Mill Hollow and Lean Mine Hollow drain toward the White River basin. The northeastern corner of the map captures the western reaches of Bull Shoals Lake, while the interior is marked by prominent topographic features such as Lee Mountain and Sharpy Jim Ridge. Local history is preserved through several family and community landmarks, including The Rock House and a series of burial sites like Lee Mountain Cemetery and Moccasin Cemetery. The network of creeks—from Moccasin Creek to Georges Creek—illustrates the intricate drainage patterns that historically dictated settlement and road placement in this upland region.
