About this map

Harry S Truman Reservoir dominates the western and southern reaches of this Henry County landscape, where the rising waters of the Tebo and South Grand arms have permanently altered the local terrain. On the higher ground to the northwest, the city of Clinton expands toward the lake, anchored by the long-established Englewood Cemetery and the Clinton Memorial Airport. The map detail captures a transition from urban grids to a structured rural network of section roads like SE 200th Rd and SE Highway AA.

Smaller settlements and named locales such as Sparrow, Gaines, and Alberta serve as waypoints across the undulating plains. The drainage pattern is defined by numerous winding waterways, including Sparrow Foot Cr, Pretty Bob Cr, and Dumpling Cr, which feed into the reservoir system. This map provides a clear view of the intersection between modern infrastructure and the natural hydrologic features that define this part of Missouri.
