Buffalo River carving through the heart of the Ozarks defines the character of this modern topographical survey. The map records the intricate network of vertical relief and riparian landscape protected within the Buffalo National River and the adjacent Buffalo National River Wilderness. Settlement patterns are concentrated around the communities of Ponca, Compton, and Beechwood, while the higher elevations are marked by distinctive landmarks such as Roark Bluff, Big Bluff, and Bee Bluff. Genealogists will find several small family and community burial grounds, including Mountain Springs Cem and Mount Sherman Cem. The terrain is characterized by numerous hollows and prongs, such as Sneeds Creek and Cecil Hollow, which feed into the main river system. This contemporary data provides a clear view of the existing road network, from established routes like Co RD 19 to specialized paths like the Old River Trl.
