2014 Map of Winslow

About this map

Winslow and the high ridges of the Ozark National Forest dominate this landscape at the Washington and Crawford County line. The settlement pattern follows the intricate drainage networks of the W Fork White River, Blackburn Creek, and Winn Creek, where steep hollows are often named for the families who settled them. Local history is anchored by the Collier Cem and Kelton Cem, as well as small communities like Blackburn and Banyard. The terrain is characterized by a series of deep ravines, including Filmore Parrish Hollow, Rotten Bluff Hollow, and Gafield Hollow. Significant infrastructure such as S Highway 71 and various forest roads wind through the topography, connecting the elevated reaches of Gaylor Mtn to the valley floors, illustrating how modern transportation has adapted to the challenging Ozark relief.
