About this map

The rolling landscape of southern Boone County at the turn of the millennium is defined by a blend of conservation lands and regional infrastructure. Much of the eastern and southern terrain is occupied by the Mark Twain National Forest and the Baskett Wildlife Research Area, which is managed by the University of Missouri. This area features dramatic topography such as the Devils Backbone ridge and Mill Site Bluff overlooking Cedar Creek.

In contrast to the protected woodlands, the western portion of the map showcases the expansive Columbia Regional Airport and several small rural communities. Local history and genealogy are preserved in landmarks like Harris Cem, Barnes Chapel, and the settlement at Englewood. The map also traces the boundary between Boone Co and Callaway Co as it follows the meandering course of Cedar Creek, illustrating the intersection of natural geography and political borders.
