2014 Map of Ozone

About this map

The Ozark National Forest covers much of this landscape in the Boston Mountains, where the headwaters of the Mulberry River and Little Piney Creek carve through deeply incised ridges. Settlement is concentrated along State Highway 21, which winds past the rural communities of Salus and Ozone. Local history is preserved in small family and community burial grounds such as Pine Grove Cemetery and Russell Cemetery, while the presence of the Ozone Gas Field and the Devils Knob Lookout Tower indicates the intersection of resource extraction and forest management in the region. The map also documents scattered residential pockets like Gillian Settlement and Farris Springs, reflecting a traditional Ozark settlement pattern that follows natural features like Hickory Flat and Pullman Hollow.
