1979 Map of Mountain Home West

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Mountain Home and the surrounding Baxter County countryside are captured here in late 1979 through rectified photoimagery, revealing a landscape of cleared fields and dense woodlands before modern suburban expansion. The orthophoto format provides a clear view of the rural-to-urban transition between Gassville and the western edge of the county seat, where the road network connects smaller hubs like Monkey Run and Colfax. In the southern portion of the sheet, the winding course of the White River carves through the Ozark terrain, showing the river's natural state and the agricultural plots that line its banks. This specific survey is an important bridge for local historians, as it overlays land lines from a 1966 topographic study onto aerial photography, highlighting how property boundaries and roads aligned with the physical landscape at the end of the 1970s.
