2020 Map of Prairie Grove

About this map

Prairie Grove and the neighboring hills of Washington County are characterized by a transition from the agricultural plains of the Illinois River valley to the higher elevations of the Ozark foothills. This survey reveals a landscape where modern development around Farmington and Prairie Grove exists alongside significant sites of local heritage, including the Illinois Chapel Cem and New Hope Cem. The terrain is marked by distinctive peaks such as North Mayberry Mtn and Wolf Mtn, while the hydrology is dominated by the Muddy Fork and the unique Living Waters Spring. Smaller hamlets like Hogeye and Hubbard remain centers of rural life, connected by a network of county roads that follow the natural contours of the ridges and valleys, preserving the historic settlement patterns of the region.
