1991 Map of Rich Hill
USGS Topo · Published 1991About this map
Rich Hill stands as the primary hub of this landscape, situated at the intersection of a complex drainage network where the Marais des Cygnes River and Osage River converge. The terrain is defined by low-lying bottomlands and floodplains, evidenced by the numerous levees protecting agricultural land and the presence of the Four Rivers State Wildlife Area. To the north, the Ripgut Prairie Natural Area preserves a pocket of native landscape. Traces of industrial history appear in the Old RR Grade south of town, while the small communities of Panama, Carbon Center, and Arthur dot the southern reaches near the Bates Co Vernon Co line. Significant local landmarks include the Harmony Sch and the Church of God, reflecting the established rural social structure that persisted into the late twentieth century.
