About this map

The Mulberry River winds through this Ozark landscape, anchoring a network of small settlements and forest roads in Franklin County. Small communities like Yale, Beach Grove, and Peanut are situated along the river valley and its tributary drainage basins, including Clear Creek and Indian Creek. The geography is defined by a series of named hollows and ridges, with Brushy Mountain rising in the southwest and Butts Hollow and Sarah Hollow cutting into the terrain further east.

Local history is preserved in several burial sites scattered across the hills, such as Lone Pine Cemetery, Good Hope Cemetery, and Yager Cemetery. The presence of Pittston Junction and Mineral Springs suggest historic local gathering points or industry, while the Wolf Pen Recreation Area highlights the transition of the land for public use. Navigation of the area relies on a detailed grid of forest and county roads, such as Pink Twist Rd and FS Rd 1504, which provide access to more remote locations like Friley and MountainTop.
