1939 Map of Macks Creek
USGS Topo · Published 1939About this map
Niangua River and Little Niangua River carve deep, winding channels through Camden County, meeting the backwaters of Lake of the Ozarks in the northeast. The 1930s landscape is defined by its water-driven history, featuring the impressive Tunnel Dam and the ruins of Hahatonka Castle overlooking Hahatonka Spring. Away from the main riverbanks, the terrain is a network of named hollows like Turkeypen Hollow and Sugarcamp Hol, punctuated by one-room schoolhouses such as Leadmine Sch and Victory Sch. Travel in this era relied on a series of critical river crossings, including Berry Ford and Smith Ford, which connected small communities like Macks Creek and Corkery. The map also captures the early recreational development of the Ozarks, noted by Mead Camp and the Red Arrow Club near the river bluffs.
