About this map

Lake of the Ozarks dominates this landscape, its deep, branching fingers like the Niangua Arm and Little Niangua River cutting through the winding ridges of Camden County. The topography is defined by sharp elevation changes, where high points like Tick Ridge and Sinkhole Ridge overlook the submerged valleys. Along the southern shorelines, the community of Neongwah and the Camdenton Towersite State Wildlife Management Area reflect a mix of conservation and rural development.

Local history is preserved in small landmarks away from the water, including the New Home Ch and the Tick Ridge Cem. Recreation and commerce meet at Green Bay Terrace and Bridal Cave, while the presence of the Windermere Church Camp and New Tribes Mission suggests the area's significance as a mid-century gathering place. The map reveals a transition from traditional Ozark hollows like Laurie Hol and Swift Hol to a modern landscape centered on the reservoir's complex shoreline.
