2020 Map of Fern

About this map

Ozark National Forest dominates this landscape in northern Arkansas, where the Crawford and Franklin County lines meet. The rugged topography is defined by high points such as Gaylor Mtn and Henderson Mtn, with the waters of Frog Bayou and Warloop Cr carving deep hollows into the terrain. Small settlements including Winfrey, Locke, and Fern provide evidence of rural life among the ridges. Local genealogy is anchored by the Locke Cem and Penise Cem, while the inclusion of the Ozark Highlands Trail and a Proposed Boston Mountain Trail indicates the area's modern role as a center for wilderness recreation. Notable landmarks like The Narrows and Devils Canyon highlight the sharp elevation changes characteristic of the Boston Mountains region.
