1993 Map of New Blaine

About this map

New Blaine and the surrounding Logan County countryside are defined by the convergence of steep interior ridges and the broad expanse of Lake Dardanelle. This 1993 revision, based on data reaching back to 1958, shows a landscape transitioning from the highlands of the Ozark National Forest and Huckleberry Mountain down to the submerged river valley. The map documents significant local history through its collection of rural cemeteries and religious sites, such as St Scholastica Ch and the Ware Chapel Cem. An Old Railroad Grade traces a path through the northern hills, a reminder of earlier transportation networks that predated the modern recreational development seen at Shoal Bay Recreation Area and Dublin Rec Area. Between the heights of Prairie View Mountain and River Mountain, the terrain is etched by numerous drainages like Big Shoal Creek and Silversmith Branch.
