About this map

Mountain Home serves as the regional anchor for this portion of Baxter County, where the transition from municipal development to the shoreline of Norfork Lake defines the landscape. The eastern expansion of the city is evident through a complex grid of residential roads like Wehmeyer Loop and Sherwood Hills Dr. Beyond the city limits, the terrain becomes increasingly complex, marked by distinct elevations such as Birdsong Mtn and Heart Bald.

Family and local history are preserved in numerous small burial grounds across the hills, including East Oakland Cem, Old Oakland Cem, and Heart Cem. To the south, the established settlements of Briarcliff and Salesville sit among a network of drainages like Hicks Cr, Panther Fork, and Morton Cr. These watercourses and named hollows, such as Camp Spring Hollow and Smith Hollow, provide a detailed record of the natural drainage patterns into the lake.
