1979 Map of Norfork Dam North

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Norfork Lake dominates this 1979 aerial orthophotoquad, showing the intricate, branching shoreline of the reservoir as it appeared nearly four decades after its creation. The imagery, captured by the Geological Survey and Soil Conservation Service, provides a detailed visual of the forested ridges and clearings surrounding the water. Small settlements like Henderson and Ruth are visible at the edges of the lake's reach, while Big Creek winds through the eastern terrain before meeting the primary water body. This specialized orthophoto format overlays traditional land lines from 1965 onto 1979 photography, allowing for a precise study of how roads and properties interacted with the stabilized lake levels and the surrounding Ozark landscape during the late twentieth century.
