About this map

Iberia sits at the heart of this Missouri Ozarks terrain, where the northern reaches of the Miller and Pulaski county line divide the landscape. The area is defined by its intricate drainage networks, most notably the winding paths of Tavern Creek and its many tributaries such as Rabbithead Cr and Clinkingbeard Cr. These waterways cut through the limestone geology, creating distinct landforms like Heltzell Hollow, Barnes Hollow, and the secluded Fox Hollow.

A local road system, including the aptly named Rabbit Head School Rd and Fairview, connects the high ridges above the valleys. Significant natural features like Blue Spring and Boiling Springs highlight the karst topography of the region. This 2017 study illustrates the rural character of the land, where small water bodies like Groffs Lake and family-named roads such as Ambrose Rd and Hollar Rd mark the transition from the rolling uplands to the creek bottoms.
