1968 Map of The Sinks

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Sinks and the complex drainage of the Ozark plateau define this landscape, where Sinking Creek disappears into a Cave at the foot of a bluff. The map illustrates a rural environment shaped by steep hollows and family-named landmarks during the late 1960s. Settlers and their descendants left their marks at Heaton Cem and Mauser Mill, while the southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the protected corridors of the Ozark National Scenic Riverways. Terrain features such as Boardinghouse Hol, Smokehouse Hol, and Mail Route Hollow provide insights into the early pioneer lifestyle and transport routes of Shannon County. Most of the northern territory is situated within the Clark National Forest, maintaining the heavily timbered character of the Current River watershed before modern development expanded.
