About this map

Silver Dollar City and the surrounding Ozark hills define this map, illustrating the intersection of tourism and local history. The rugged geography is marked by numerous high points, known locally as balds, including Garber Bald, Coxs Bald, and Dewey Bald. These elevations overlook the winding West Fork Roark Creek and the expansive waters of Table Rock Lake. Landmarks such as Marvel Cave and Inspiration Tower highlight the area's development as a destination, while the Rock Lane Lodge Marina and John the Diver Airport show the infrastructure supporting modern recreation.

Genealogists and local historians can trace deeper roots through sites like Evergreen Cemetery and Gretna Cemetery. Historic dwellings like Old Matts Cabin and Jim Lane Cabin provide concrete links to the region's past. The map also captures the varied terrain through descriptively named hollows, from Possum Haw Hollow to Sawmill Hollow, reflecting the early industry and natural character of the Garber and Notch communities.
