About this map

Reeds Spring serves as a northern anchor in this Stone County landscape, where the Ozark terrain transitions into the vast waters of Table Rock Lake. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the intricate shorelines of the lake, including prominent landmarks like White Rock Bluff and Oswalt Bluff. This area reflects the significant 20th-century shift from isolated hollows to a recreational economy, as seen in the development around Kimberling City and Branson West.

Deeply carved drainages such as Bear Den Hollow, Saltpeter Hollow, and Devil Den Hollow reveal the historical isolation of the region before the modern road network, including State Hwy HH and State Hwy Y, was established. Large tracts of the Mark Twain National Forest preserve the wooded character of the hills, while several small burial grounds like Yocum Pond Cem and Shepherd Cem offer points of interest for those tracing family history in the hollows.
