About this map

The Current River carves a deep path through the Ozark Plateau in this 2015 study of the border between Carter and Ripley counties. This landscape is defined by the sharp transition between the protected lands of the Ozark National Scenic Riverways and the Mark Twain National Forest. Local family history is preserved in several small burial sites scattered across the terrain, including Ponder Cemetery, Hannars Graveyard, and Lewis Cemetery.

Topographic features reflect the area's geology, with numerous named hollows such as Stillhouse Hollow and Gooseneck Hollow feeding into the river system. Distinctive landmarks like Tunnel Bluff and Kelley Bluff rise above the river bends, while the settlement of Tucker serves as a focal point in the southern portion of the map. The intricate network of forest roads, including Forest Rd 3142 and Forest Rd 3215, provides the primary access to this heavily forested and deeply dissected river valley.
