About this map

Lake of the Ozarks dominates the landscape here, its intricate shoreline carving out numerous named ridges and hollows such as Tick Ridge and Tom Hill Hollow. The map highlights the sprawling reaches of the Niangua Arm and the Little Niangua Arm, illustrating how the impounded waters transformed the local topography. High bluffs like Lovers Leap Bluff and Bull Run Bluff overlook the winding water, while underground wonders are noted at Bridal Cave.

Cultural landmarks are scattered across the higher ground, including Mt Taber Ch and New Home Ch, alongside family-named burial sites like Farmer Cem and Tick Ridge Cem. The area around Green Bay Terrace and the northern edge of Camdenton show a mix of early lakeside development and rural settlement patterns, marked by various Trailer Park locations and a Lookout Tower positioned for a wide view of the surrounding hills.
