About this map

Ozark National Scenic Riverways encompasses much of this landscape, centered on the winding path of the Current River. This 2015 survey shows a terrain defined by deep hollows and numerous freshwater springs, including Blue Spring, Cove Spring, and Clint Williams Spring. The settlement of Owls Bend sits near a prominent bend in the river, while the tiny community of Gang is situated to the northwest among the drainage of Blair Cr.

Historically significant landmarks like the Powder Mill Ferry provide evidence of the traditional river crossings required before modern infrastructure. The map is heavily marked with family-named features and local topography, from Peter Mooney Mtn and Vance Mtn to the intriguing Marvel Cave Hollow. This detailed record captures the Ozark interior where the river economy and rugged landforms dictate the placement of roads like Co Road 106-531 and CR-539.
