2021 Map of Selmore

About this map

Ozark and the nearby community of Selmore anchor the northwestern portion of this 2021 Christian County survey, where suburban expansion meets the deeply dissected drainages of the Missouri Ozarks. The landscape transitions rapidly from the grid of residential streets near Skyview Airport into the dense timber and winding valleys of the Mark Twain National Forest. The map captures a unique mix of modern transportation infrastructure and geological landmarks, including the notable Selmore Natural Arch. To the east and south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex, defined by a network of hollows such as Flyblow Hollow and Beckout Hollow that feed into Bull Creek. Several family burial grounds, including the Adams Cemetery and Mapes Family Cemetery, are preserved among the ridges, offering a clear record of the area's rural genealogical heritage amidst contemporary growth.
