2012 Map of Low Wassie

About this map

Low Wassie and Brawley anchor this portion of the Ozark landscape, where the terrain is defined by an intricate network of hollows and seasonal watercourses. The local geography is heavily influenced by the drainage patterns of Pike Creek and the southern Hurricane Creek, which carve out named features like Saltpetre Hollow and Possum Trot Hollow. Transportation history is visible in the presence of Old Tram Rd and Tram Lookout, suggesting the region's historical connection to timber or industrial rail paths. In the northern reaches, the Twinpine Picnic Area and Mount Zion Cemetery serve as landmarks of community and recreation. The map also captures numerous localized water bodies such as Nichols Lake, Tram Pond, and Grassy Pond, reflecting the diverse hydrologic character of Shannon County's southern hills.
