2011 Map of La Monte

About this map

La Monte serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Pettis County, Missouri. The town is situated at the intersection of several significant local arteries, including Higgins St and La Monte Rd, with the La Monte Cemetery located just to the north. The surrounding countryside is defined by an intricate network of waterways, most notably the meandering path of the South Fork Blackwater River which draws in numerous tributaries like Beaverdam Creek and Brushy Creek. To the northwest, the smaller settlement of Stokley sits near the headwaters of Elk Creek. This map illustrates the intersection of a modern road grid with the natural drainage patterns of the region, showing how section-line roads like Winston Rd and Rowletta Rd navigate the low-lying basins of Bear Branch and Wolf Creek.
