USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
The White River defines the landscape of Jackson and Independence counties, its serpentine course carving deep bends like Caster Bend and Hinkle Bend. This 1960s-era geography reveals a region deeply tied to its water and rail lines, where the Missouri Pacific railroad serves established towns like Newport and Diaz. The presence of numerous oxbow lakes and brakes, such as Donahue Brake and Bell Lake Brake, underscores the alluvial nature of the territory.
