About this map

Mountain Home serves as the regional hub in this part of Baxter Co, where the plateau meets the high bluffs overlooking the White River. The landscape is defined by its ridge-and-valley structure, with prominent elevations such as Monkey Run Hill and Hickman Knob rising above the winding courses of Big Cr and Jenkins Cr. Historically significant sites are scattered throughout the countryside, including the rural settlement of Monkey Run and numerous family cemeteries like Baker Cem and Tucker Cem.

Modern infrastructure and institutional growth are visible through the presence of the Baxter County Airport and the campus of Arkansas State Univ - Mtn Home. The western edge of the survey transitions across the Marion Co line, following the southern bend of the river. The map details an area where long-established church and cemetery sites, such as Pilgrims Rest Cem and Wesley Chapel Cem, coexist with the expanding residential reaches of Gassville and the central city.
