About this map

Ozark National Forest dominates this section of Stone County, where the uniquely named settlement of Fiftysix sits at the junction of State Hwy 14 and Roasting Ear Rd. The landscape is defined by a dense network of hollows, such as Leatherwood Hollow and Gunner Hollow, carved by the various forks of N Sylamore Cr and S Sylamore Cr. Local history is anchored by small communities like Gayler, which features the Gayler Cem, and the cluster of Red Doors near the Red Doors Cem to the south.

Inland water features are central to the area's geography, including Gunner Pool Lake, Mirror Lake, and Blanchard Spring. The map captures the rugged interior of northern Arkansas, where old roads like Hicks Rd and Gaylor Rd connect family-named landmarks and high points like Cow Mtn. This record shows the distribution of homes and forest boundaries before modern expansion altered the rural character of the region near Mountain View.
