About this map

Bull Shoals Lake dominates the northeastern terrain of this Marion County quadrangle, showing the controlled inundation areas along its jagged shoreline as they appeared in the early 1970s. The landscape is deeply incised by a network of named ridges and hollows, including Welcome Ridge and Wolfpen Ridge, which reflect the rugged topography of the Ozarks. The southern portion of the map centers on the settlement of Summit, situated along the Missouri Pacific railroad line. This area reveals a significant history of extraction, evidenced by numerous labeled sites like the Onwata Mine, Lost Bell Mine, and Erie Ozark Mine. These features, alongside local landmarks like The Rock House and the Welcome Ridge Ch, provide a detailed record of the mid-century rural economy and community structure in this part of Arkansas.
