About this map

Natural Dam serves as a focal point where the Mountain Fork meets Lee Creek near the Arkansas-Oklahoma state line. This 2020 survey of Crawford County reveals a landscape defined by the rugged elevations of the Ozark National Forest, featuring prominent landmarks like Chinkapin Knob and Grapevine Ridge. The settlement of Davidson is situated along the western edge, near the Adair County border, while the surrounding hills are marked by numerous hollows such as Ashley Hollow and Whitten Hollow.

Genealogists can find significant local history at the Bateman Cem, Morton Cem, and Hall Cem, which are scattered across the township lines. The map also documents modern infrastructure and access points like the Lee Creek Bridge and various forest roads including Liberty Hill Rd and Cove Creek Rd, reflecting the continued importance of these rural corridors in accessing the ridges and timberlands of the western Ozarks.
