2012 Map of Day

About this map

Bull Creek and its many winding tributaries, including Woods Fork and Bear Creek, define the topography of this portion of Taney County. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of ridges and hollows, such as Chestnut Ridge and Beachler Ridge, which have influenced local settlement patterns and the winding routes of roads like Logan Ridge Rd. The small community of Day and the newer development of Saddlebrooke sit near these watercourses, while family names are preserved in features like Nash Cemetery and the many named hollows. Historical utility and conservation efforts are evident through the presence of the Hill Top Lookout Tower and natural landmarks like Dewitt Cave. The map reflects a rural Missouri landscape where modern residential planning in Saddlebrooke meets the traditional agricultural and topographic divisions of the Ozark hills.
