About this map

Hazel Valley and Delaney anchor this high-elevation landscape where the Ozark plateau breaks into a complex network of hollows and ridges. The Middle Fork White River and Frog Bayou carve significant paths through the terrain, illustrating the critical watershed divide at the intersection of Washington, Madison, Crawford, and Franklin counties. Large portions of the area are managed as part of the Ozark National Forest, yet small, named communities like Brannon, Health, and Patrick persist along the winding forest roads.

Local history is preserved in the location of Temple Hill Cem and Stringum Cem, providing vital reference points for genealogical research in this sparsely populated region. The map highlights numerous named geographical features, such as Walls Hollow, Keets Hollow, and Shepherd Mtn, which define the rugged character of the Boston Mountains. These landmarks, along with a dense network of county and forest roads, offer a precise record of the human and natural landscape in the early twenty-first century.
