2020 Map of Ravenden

About this map

Spring River meanders across the northern portion of this landscape, marking the border between Sharp and Lawrence Counties near the town of Ravenden. The terrain is defined by a dense network of ridges and hollows, where family-named landmarks like Van Wagoner Ridge and Graveyard Ridge rise above deeply cut drainages such as Buzzard Roost Canyon. Rural life is centered around small family cemeteries and long-standing road networks, including the Opposition Cem and Coffman Cem. Evidence of local industry and homesteading remains visible through features like Goat Shed Mtn and Homestead Hollow. While much of the area remains wooded and dissected by creeks like Opposition Cr and Wells Cr, modern features such as Little Joe Lake appear alongside older geographic markers like Watts Bluff and Bald Knob.
