2011 Map of Sandstone Mountain

About this map

Beaver Lake defines the northwestern landscape of this Carroll County region, its flooded fingers reaching into deep drainages like Penitentiary Hollow and Hogscald Hollow. The terrain is characterized by high ridges and family-named peaks, including Sandstone Mountain and Polecat Mountain, which separate the various creek valleys. Small settlements and rural crossroads such as West Liberty and Lone Star serve as anchors for the local community, while the presence of Beulah Union Cemetery and Pemberton Cemetery offers significant value for those tracing local lineages. The network of county roads follows the natural contours of the land, connecting the high points of Grindstone Mountain down through timbered gaps like Durham Mill Hollow. This modern survey illustrates how traditional Ozark land patterns persist alongside the significant hydrological change brought by the lake.
