1987 Map of Elk Creek

About this map

The Ozark plateau of Texas County comes into focus through this 1980s-era topographical record, showing a landscape defined by deep-cut creek valleys and dispersed rural settlements. Small hamlets like Solo and Elk Creek anchor the western reaches of the quadrangle, while Tyrone and Grogan mark the eastern and southeastern corners. The drainage pattern is particularly intricate, with Hog Creek and Little Hog Creek flowing through the north, while the headwaters of the North Prong Jacks Fork begin their southern descent.
