another map

here is a map i really like because it shows what i believe. it has been a topic that has come up again recently and that is where the ozarks' southern edge lies.

personally, i say it is that hill right out of conway as you are leaving to go north on highway 65 where pickles gap is right over the top. you cannot get much more ozarks than that. it is all the way ozarks from there on out once you top the crest of that hill.

it looks like the ozarks. it feels like the ozarks. i know i am in the ozarks. therefore it is the ozarks.

i have read or seen maps that show it is just south of clinton. that makes no sense to me. i have never been able to wrap my head around that. that is so far north.

it is obvious you are in the ozarks all the way to interstate 40.

perhaps there is a geological argument. i am not going to get into that. i would hate to lose 🤣bc i am just not buying it.

there is part of the ozarks that are clearly in "the ozarks" that look like they should not be, so there ya go.

here is the map i randomly found. i was not even looking for it as usual. at least with this one, i have linked it to its original source since i neglected to do that with the first map i posted ages ago.

the map i agree with for taking the ozarks so far south

there you have it. if i knew the other regions as well as i know the area i live and roam about in, i would be able to know if i felt as strongly about where their delineation lies.

  1. Interesting. I sometimes have wondered about the term Ozark Mountains until we take a long drive and I look far ahead at the rolling, mountainous terrain and it sure looks like mountains to me.
