About this map

Womack serves as the central settlement in this portion of the Ozark foothills, where the Upper Castor River and numerous creeks carve through the landscape. The area is defined by a network of drainage systems and hollows, such as Sugar Camp Hollow and Opossum Hollow, illustrating the complex hydrology of the region before these waters join larger river systems. Local history and genealogy researchers will find the McDowell Cemetery positioned near the center of the sheet, a significant landmark for tracing early residents of Ste. Genevieve County.

Industrial and public safety infrastructure is evident through the presence of water management and surveillance structures. Both the Bauman Lake Dam and Dalton Lake Dam indicate small-scale water impoundment, while the Whitewater Lookout Tower and Higdon Lookout Tower stand on high ground to monitor the surrounding timberlands. The settlement of Cross Roads further highlights the intersection of local travel routes like Highway T and Old Jackson Rd.
