About this map

The Eleven Point River carves a deep path through Oregon County, Missouri, anchoring a landscape defined by the Mark Twain National Forest. The settlement of Riverton serves as a focal point for the region, positioned near the river's edge. This modern survey illustrates the enduring agricultural and industrial heritage of the area, most notably at the site of Boze Mill. The topography is heavily dissected by numerous hollows, such as Panther Spring Hollow, Stillhouse Hollow, and Orchard Hollow, which highlight the complex hydrology of the Ozarks.

A network of springs, including Turtle Island Spring, Bliss Spring, and Jones Spring, feeds into the main river channel and its tributaries like Whites Cr and Hurricane Cr. Distinctive landforms such as Turkey Knob, Conner Hill, and Tater Hill rise above the drainage basins, while the Eleven Point Wild and Scenic River designation reflects the area's preserved natural state. Local roads like State Hwy AA and various county routes provide access to these remote reaches of southern Missouri.
