About this map

The Mulberry Wild and Scenic River carves a central path through this section of the Ozark National Forest on the border of Franklin and Johnson counties. Small settlements and crossroads like Yale, Peanut, and Beach Grove dot the river valley, connected by winding routes such as the Cass Oark Rd. The map reveals a landscape defined by deep drainages and ridges, including Wolf Pen Hollow, Butts Hollow, and Brushy Mtn.

Genealogical interest is found in local burial sites such as Yager Cem, Good Hope Cem, and Lone Pine Cem. Evidence of rural infrastructure and recreational access is clear, from the Ozark Highlands Trail traversing the northern ridges to Byrd's Backcountry Airstrip situated along the river bend. To the southwest, Pittston Junction and Mineral Springs mark the transition toward the higher elevations of the southern interior.
