About this map

Mountain View sits at the northeastern corner of this 2014 survey, serving as a gateway to the high ridges and deep hollows of Stone County. The landscape is defined by its complex topography, where heights like Indian Knob and Cow Mtn rise above a dense network of watercourses including Tomahawk Cr and Lick Fork. Settlement patterns follow the valley floors and lower ridges, most notably at East Richwoods and West Richwoods.

Genealogical interest is found at the Fredonia Cem near Cave Spring Br and the Finch Cem located in the southern reach of the quadrangle. Transport through these highlands relies on a mix of state routes and local hollow roads like Happy Hollow Rd and Toad Hollow Rd. This USGS study documents the enduring rural character of the region, from the residential streets of Mountain View to the isolated valley of Turkey Creek further south.
