Valles Mines and the surrounding mineral-rich borderlands of Jefferson and St. Francois counties are captured here in the early 1980s. This survey illustrates a landscape defined by its mining heritage and its transition toward recreational development, with numerous artificial water bodies like Summerset Lake, Valle Lake, and Lake Timberline dotting the hills. The Missouri Pacific Railroad follows the winding course of the Big River, passing through small settlements like Blackwell and Vineland. Local history is preserved through a dense network of family and community landmarks, including the Moontown and Old Blackwell cemeteries, and the Sunrise School. The presence of Dripping Springs Hollow and the Big River State Forest highlights the interplay between the area's industrial past and its rugged natural terrain.
