2020 Map of Denver

About this map

Denver and Farewell anchor this rural landscape along the Arkansas-Missouri border, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of hollows and ridges draining toward Table Rock Lake. The map illustrates a region of deep family roots and small-town continuity, marked by significant sites like Denver Cem and Enon Cem. To the northwest, the Mark Twain National Forest establishes a preserved wilderness boundary, while the central topography is carved by Yocum Cr and Long Creek. The naming of prominent landmarks like Backbone Bluff, Raven Bluff, and Kimhowart Hill reflects the long-standing local identification with the physical geography. Tracing the numerous creek branches such as Callens Br and Stillhouse Cr provides insight into the historic drainage patterns and land use in this section of Carroll and Boone Counties.
