TOPOGRAPHY The Ozark Mountain terrain of caves, streams, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, grasslands, forests, steep rocky hillsides, bottomland and glades make up the breathtaking topography of the area.
OUTDOOR ADVENTURE | 1-877-BRANSON | ExploreBranson.com
Although hardwood forests cover much of the Branson/Lakes Area, one of the most intriguing features is the “glades,” frequently referred to as “balds” by locals because of their characteristically sparse terrain of semidesert soil, ledge-rock, scattered cedar trees and prairie plants amidst rolling seas of oak and hickory trees. You’ll most often see glades on the south- and west-facing slopes of hills. Intense and prolonged sunlight, coupled with fires started by lightning, Native Americans or early settlers, have kept them relatively clear of trees.

justice gangs that organized in Taney County after many years of lawlessness following the Civil War. Started by upstanding citizens, the Bald Knobbers, as they became known, concealed their identities for fear of retribution by criminals and eventually lost popular support due to their increasingly ruthless and seemingly indiscriminate (and sometimes murderous) tactics. You can still see “Baldknobbers” in Branson, the musical instrument-toting kind, at the Baldknobbers’ Jamboree show; well past their 50th year of bringing music and family entertainment to audiences.

OUTDOOR ADVENTURE GOLF OZARK MOUNTAIN GOLF OASIS When you explore Branson golf, you’ll discover a new world of award-winning courses connected with the greatest names in golf: Fazio, Nicklaus, Palmer, even Payne Stewart. These courses offer world-class golfing experiences. Newly reopened, Top of the Rock is now the host of PGA’s Legends of Golf event. The first-ever Par-3 course to be included in a professional championship, it features nature and golf at its finest. The experience includes a Jack Nicklaus signature course, an Arnold Palmerdesigned practice facility, Tom Watson’s 70,000-square-foot putting complex called the “Himalayas,” and Arnie’s Barn, a magnificent 150-year-old barn relocated from Arnold Palmer’s backyard in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. The Buffalo Ridge Springs course has a growing reputation as one of the top public courses in the nation. Both Golf
Magazine and Golf Digest have ranked it as the best public course in Missouri. Tom Fazio designed the challenging layout, utilizing all of the natural features of the landscape. Formerly known as Branson Creek, it features elevated tees and numerous bunkers strategically positioned around the greensides and fairways, with a herd of bison looking on. Stroll through time when you visit Payne Stewart Golf Club, with its museum of championship trophies and memorabilia. Designed by Bobby Clampett, this course is named for the late, great, Springfield, Mo. native, Payne Stewart. Thousand Hills Golf Resort was rated 4-stars by Golf Digest magazine in 2009 and was voted “Best of the Ozarks” by the readers of the Springfield News-Leader for the past two years. This course has gained popularity from its unique ability in
catering to all golf skill levels. From novice to professional, the three separate sets of tees ensure a challenging, fair game for all golfers. LedgeStone Country Club at StoneBridge Village was described by Golf Digest as a “masterpiece of mountain golf architecture.” The 18hole, par 71, championship course is just minutes from downtown Branson. Pointe Royale is a true “shot-maker” course. With lush bent grass greens and Bermuda fairways, it offers eight water holes, sand and grass bunkers, and tees for all levels of play.

OUTDOOR ADVENTURE LAKES THREE PRISTINE LAKES The Branson/Lakes Area is well known for its three pristine lakes: Table Rock, Taneycomo and Bull Shoals. Water sports enthusiasts can swim, water ski, wakeboard, tube, boat, sail, scuba dive, jet ski, parasail, kayak and, of course, fish. The lakes’ waters never freeze, welcoming visitors’ activities year-round. All three lakes offer resort lodging, camping and picnicking facilities and easy access to the water at a number of public marinas and boat docks/launch areas. Several commercial docks offer fishing guide services and a wide range of boat rentals, including ski boats, pontoon boats, bass boats and wave runners. Many of the resorts on the three lakes offer guide service, rental boats, snack bars and private dock facilities for visitors’ boats as well.
TABLE ROCK LAKE Accessible from multiple public and privately-owned locations just minutes to the west of Branson, Table Rock Lake has been delighting visitors and residents alike since it was formed by the damming of the White River in 1959. While visitors can find dozens of places to stay and play along the banks of Table Rock Lake, the area’s commercial developments have placed a high priority on preserving the scenic beauty of the Ozarks’ natural shoreline, bluffs, forests and wildlife.
FISHING TABLE ROCK LAKE Missouri’s deepest (200 feet) and clearest reservoir, Table Rock is nationally recognized as a top bass fishing lake. Large numbers of largemouth, smallmouth, Kentucky spotted bass and white bass thrive in its diverse underwater structure and immense forage base. Bass, crappie and large bluegill are caught in abundance. Catfish of all sizes also roam the lake bottom. Many area resorts and marinas can hook you up with an experienced fishing guide, and there are hundreds of

TABLE ROCK LAKE FACTS • 43,000 to 52,300* acres of surface area (* depending on the water level) • 857 miles of shoreline • Table Rock Dam was completed in 1959 • The dam is 6,423 ft. long and 252 ft. high.

Beach, Forsyth, Powersite, Hollister and the Fall Creek area, Lake Taneycomo was formed with the completion of Powersite Dam in 1913. It was originally a section of the White River, and although Taneycomo is now technically a lake, it retains the look and feel of a river. When Table Rock Dam was completed at Taneycomo’s headwaters in 1959, the nature of the lake changed. Taneycomo’s water now comes from the bottom of Table Rock Lake, making it a cold water lake. The cold, clear water, stocked annually with approximately 750,000 rainbow trout, makes Lake Taneycomo a world-class trout fishery. Resorts and full-service public marinas offer canoeing, kayaking, fishing boats,

motorboats, guides, tackle and pontoons for relaxing and fun-filled lake activities.
FISHING LAKE TANEYCOMO The uppermost portion of the lake is reserved for artificial lures only such as tiny jigs and crankbaits. These headwaters are also ideal for fly fishing with flies that imitate the freshwater shrimp and other natural bait that trout feed upon. The locals say the best way to catch trout is by drifting salmon eggs or angleworms. Affix the eggs or worms to a small hook and cast into holes with an ultra light rod and reel. This method used from a drifting boat or from a dock will yield a nice stringer of trout. Lower Lake Taneycomo harbors a well-kept secret. The downstream area closer to Forsyth offers considerably warmer water and many other species of fish, making Taneycomo a versatile and challenging destination for anglers who are aware of its changing character from one end to the other. Fishing guides are available to help you make the most of your Lake Taneycomo experience.

Camping at Table Rock State Park
While browsing through Instagram one evening in March, I noticed a new photo posted to my feed uploaded by a good friend of mine. Luke, my friend, has always had a “good eye” for photography so I was curious to check it out. It was a picture of a campfire in the woods. While the picture was so simple, the words used to describe the scene were powerful. The caption read:
“If at the end of every night we all just sat around a campfire, life would make a little more sense.” “Wow, that’s so true,” I thought to myself. This simple philosophy struck me as compelling. Immediately my mind was flooded with the vivid memories of many nights spent around campfires in Branson and out in the Ozark Mountains. Reading his caption, it was almost as if I could hear the gentle crackling of the wood and the wind swishing the flames. I could practically smell the familiar fresh, smoky scent of charred cedar logs—nostalgia at its finest.
As I think about it, I cannot agree more with Luke’s caption—that the peace and tranquility of a campfire often reminds us of the things that matter in life, the things that just “make a little more sense.” The peaceful flames beckon us to remember the necessities in life. Necessities like being still and slowing things down a bit, enjoying the company of family and friends, learning to listen and be open with others and taking time to ‘reset’ from life’s constant happenings. A campfire provides the amazing opportunity to bring families together in these ways, and when we utilize that opportunity, life really does seem to make a little more sense. You know, while Branson does offer a wide variety of exciting shows and attractions, there are many different ways to reset and relax here in the Ozarks, whether camping in a tent, an RV or nestled in a log cabin. Branson’s unique landscape offers beautiful scenery in practically every campground around town and in all four seasons (although camping in the winter is, well… pretty chilly). We have campgrounds located off the lakes, deep in the hills, but also
many located right on the waterfront, a perfect fit for any group. But perhaps the best aspect about camping in Branson is being able to spend quality time with your family, away from distractions, at a very affordable cost, and not to mention that you’re always just minutes from all the fun activities that Branson has to offer.
So the next time you’re in Branson or the Ozark Mountains, consider taking a camping trip and try to remember some of life’s necessities—the things that just make more sense—I think you’ll find that Branson is the perfect place to do just that. By Robert Sindorf

With a one-and-a-half mile shoreline stretching along Lake Taneycomo, fly fishermen come to enjoy one of the top Rainbow and German Brown Trout fishing lakes in America. rockawaybeach.net
The Buffalo River begins as a trickle in the Boston Mountains of northwest Arkansas and the first national river flows 150 miles to the east through the Ozarks and into the White River. The Buffalo River National Park offers hiking, camping, hunting, fishing and canoeing and has designated trails and wilderness areas. Horseback riding is also permitted in small groups and on the owners’ horses.
In the 1800’s, several of our earliest pioneer settlements were located along the river, drawn by the clear, pure water and abundant fishing and wild game. In the 20th century, the locals invented the “jon” boat. These long, narrow wooden boats were very stable, yet easy to maneuver in the shallow, swift current of the local Ozarks rivers. Come experience the natural beauty of the mountains where float fishing was invented.
Southwest of Branson, 50 miles into Arkansas, is the only town in America where the entire downtown is on the National Register of Historic Places.

LOCAL HISTORY LOCAL HISTORY A MARVELOUS BEGINNING For more than 100 years, the Branson/ Lakes Area has been attracting visitors to the Ozarks, lured by natural beauty and outdoor recreational activities. The first family attraction to draw visitors was Marvel Cave (beneath the property where Silver Dollar City theme park is currently located). First called Marble Cave because its limestone walls were
On the advice of his physician, minister Harold Bell Wright traveled from his home in Kansas to the Ozarks in 1898 to seek a more suitable climate for his health. He stayed at the homestead of John and Anna Ross, whom Wright later immortalized as the characters Old Matt and Aunt Mollie in his best-selling novel “The Shepherd of the Hills.” Published in 1907, the book told the story of the self-reliant and stoic hill people he encountered in the area and of the wooded valleys, the mountain “balds” and the incredible cave he had seen. Presleys’ Country Jubilee
who began presenting the very first dramatization of Wright’s story, right on the front lawn. When Ozark Beach Dam (also called Powersite Dam) was built in 1913 near Forsyth and Lake Taneycomo was created, the area became quite a haven for outdoor enthusiasts who came to fish, boat, swim, hunt and enjoy the rugged beauty of the Ozark Mountains. Travelers flocked to the Ozarks on the newly-built White River Line railroad that stopped in the neighboring town of Hollister, Missouri.
1950 - 1969 TV SHOWS & HYDROELECTRIC POWER The area first gained national prominence in the entertainment industry in 1954 when Red Foley, a legendary country singer with 38 top ten hits, moved to Springfield, Missouri, from Nashville, Tennessee, to host “Ozark Jubilee,” one of the first successful network television shows. In 1959, the area was changed forever with the completion of Table Rock Dam. This brought much needed power to the area, spurring the growth of many area businesses. Until 1959, Rockaway Beach, located just a few miles east of Branson on the banks of Lake Taneycomo, had long been a playground for America’s rich and famous with movie stars and U.S. presidents among those who retreated to the small resort community.
thought to be marble, the cave was described by geologists in the 1860s and explored in the 1880s by adventurers who lowered themselves on ropes 200 feet into the main chamber. Scientific American magazine described the cave in 1885, and word of the natural wonder spread throughout the continent. Canadian mining expert William Henry Lynch read of the cave, purchased it sight unseen, traveled to the Ozarks and, with his two daughters, opened the cave for public tours in 1894.
64
The book was a huge success. Millions of copies were sold in several languages, and four movies were filmed, including a 1941 version starring John Wayne, in his first Technicolor film. Wright’s novel has become the fourth most widely read book in publishing history.
Construction of a dam created Table Rock Lake, nationally renowned for bass fishing and water sports. In addition, the cold water from the bottom of Table Rock Lake that was now flowing into Lake Taneycomo changed it into one of the country’s most popular trout flyfishing lakes.
FIRST FAMILIES OF ENTERTAINMENT BALDKNOBBERS JAMBOREE
Following the publication of “The Shepherd of the Hills,” local residents began noticing a great influx of visitors. Many came to the Ross homestead. The Rosses eventually sold their homestead to Miss Lizzie McDaniel of Springfield,
LOCAL HISTORY | 1-877-BRANSON | ExploreBranson.com
In 1959, Mabe brothers Bob, Bill, Lyle, and Jim began performing twice a week in a converted roller skating rink on the Lake Taneycomo waterfront in downtown Branson. The brothers combined popular country tunes with
Ozark Mountain music and threw in a dash of comedy to entertain audiences. In 1969, the Baldknobbers, as the brothers called themselves, built a theater on Highway 76, making their act the longest continuously running show.
SHEPHERD OF THE HILLS HOMESTEAD & OUTDOOR DRAMA A few miles east of Silver Dollar City, Dr. Bruce Trimble and his wife, Mary, began staging an outdoor pageant in 1959 based on the best-selling novel “The Shepherd of the Hills.” The amphitheater was actually located on the site where the models for author Harold Bell Wright’s characters lived. Under Mary, her son Mark and his wife Lea’s direction, the production grew into one of the nation’s most popular outdoor historical dramas. In 1985, Gary Snadon (school teacher and former cast member of the outdoor drama) along with his wife, Pat, purchased the homestead.
SILVER DOLLAR CITY In 1960, the long-term plans of Hugo and Mary Herschend came to fruition
with the opening of a small, old-time Ozarks village attraction atop the longpopular Marvel Cave, about 10 miles west of Branson on Hwy. 76. They called it Silver Dollar City, and it offered an 1880s steam train ride, demonstrating craftsmen, themed shops and music. The first year, it drew 125,000 people. Following Hugo’s death, Mary and her sons Jack and Peter continued to direct the growth of the family business, and by 1963, Silver Dollar City was Missouri’s top tourist attraction. In 1967, Silver Dollar City received national exposure when the popular “Beverly Hillbillies” television show filmed five episodes at the park. The company later expanded to include other popular Branson attractions: White Water water park, the Showboat Branson Belle and Celebration City theme park. Today, Silver Dollar City has grown into a multi-million dollar entertainment complex. The park also hosts six festivals each year. In 1998, Silver Dollar City was given the Applause Award by the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions as
the top theme park in the world. The family-owned company, Herschend Family Entertainment, currently owns, operates or partners in 19 properties in nine states. In 2004, Jack and Peter Herschend were inducted into the Hall of Fame of the amusement industry’s largest organization worldwide, the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions.
PRESLEYS’ COUNTRY JUBILEE In 1963, the Presley family began a music show at The Underground Theater near Talking Rocks Cavern in Kimberling City with special guests from “Ozark Jubilee,” including Red Foley. They made history in 1967 when they built the first music theater on Hwy. 76. Today, Presleys’ Country Jubilee stars three generations of Presley family members including two original members of the show: Gary and Steve Presley, Lloyd and Bessie’s sons. Together with other cast members, each night they perform a variety of musical styles on a wide range of instruments, and a much loved array of comedy skits.
