2017 Map of Doniphan South

About this map

Current River drainage dominates this section of Ripley County, tracing a winding path south from Doniphan through the heart of the Ozarks. The river's influence is evident in the numerous tributaries and topographical features that define the region, from the elevated Gartman Rock overlooking the water to the broad Big Island downstream. The landscape is deeply dissected by drainages like Hurricane Creek, Dudley Cr, and Beasley Cr, which have historically dictated the placement of small rural communities and family burial grounds.
