1965 Map of Norfork Dam North

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Norfork Lake dominates this landscape, its dendritic shoreline reaching deep into the Ozark foothills through drainages like Float Creek and Big Creek. The central engineering feat, the Norfork Dam, is visible at the southern edge of the sheet alongside the National Fish Hatchery and a large industrial quarry. Local life centers around the water, evidenced by numerous public access points including Georges Cove and Jordan Landing. Small upland communities and landmarks such as Henderson, Ruth, and Center Point Ch occupy the higher ridges, while the presence of a Landing Strip near Wolf Knob suggests the area's importance as a recreational destination. Purple photorevisions from 1981 highlight suburban and lakeside development that occurred nearly two decades after the initial 1964-1965 survey.
