2024 Map of Norfork
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
The confluence of the North Fork River and the White River anchors this study of Baxter County, where the settlement of Norfork sits at the water's edge. The landscape is defined by its dramatic elevation changes, from the heights of Wild Hog Mtn and Matney Knob to the deep incisions of Ellen Cockran Hollow and Rough Hollow. This modern survey illustrates the enduring rural character of the region, where family and community heritage is preserved in sites like the Burnt School House Cem and Arkana Cem. Much of the southern terrain is protected within the Ozark National Forest and the Leatherwood Wilderness, limiting modern development to the corridors along Goat Ridge and the various county roads. The importance of the river system is evident in the winding path of Shipps Ferry Rd and the prominent limestone features such as White Bluff, which overlook the twisting river bends.
