1968 Map of Hunter

About this map

Hunter and Ellsinore serve as the primary anchors of this late-1960s survey within the Clark National Forest. The landscape is defined by the transition from timbered ridges to the drainage of the Little Black River and Tenmile Creek. Industrial history is etched into the terrain along Copper Mine Hollow, where an Old Railroad Grade and the Copper Mine itself point to an era of extraction. Scattered throughout the hollows are smaller family and community landmarks like Crites Corner and White Mill Cem. The presence of the Hunter Lookout Tower underscores the region's managed forest character, while several rural sanctuaries such as Mt Carmel Ch and the Evangelistic Center Ch reflect the enduring social fabric of these Missouri Ozark townships.
