About[edit | edit source]

Ozarkapedia is a community focused on aggregating and preserving information about the Ozarks. Our main focus is on public access points for boating, paddling, and fishing, but can easily expand to support hiking, horse trails, SxS routes, and more.

Right now, there is one contributor: Rootwad, but he wants you to help out, if you're interested!

For readers[edit | edit source]

The Meramec Valley rivers have the most detail, particularly the Lower Meramec. There's also an Ozark National Scenic Riverways page, with the Jacks Fork and the Current River. We have a number of highlights added to the Jacks Fork thanks to the David Lewis Books, and the fact that occasionally someone uploads a photo of his maps online. The Category:River page will list every river we have, as we add them.

For contributors[edit | edit source]

Ozarkapedia is a community run, not-for-profit website. Read the About page to learn more about how all that works, and a handful of rules. After that, you can start editing right away - no account no approval necessary. Rootwad watches the Recent Changes log like a hawk. Check out Category:River to see which rivers have been added, then visit Ozarkapedia:Contributor Panel and use the links there to start contributing improvements!

Meramec Valley:

 ScoreNotes
Big River3I've created the public accesses, and big hazards. I couldn't find any caves, and only one spring.
Bourbeuse3Good shape. Need a lot of photos. There are a lot of bridges to mark, as well.
Courtois Creek3Ready for photos! Most of the springs and cave locations are rough based on OSM data.
Huzzah Creek3Ready for photos! Many accesses could use detail validation.
Meramec3The lower part of the Meramec is fairly comnplete for Level 4, but there are a LOT of accesses, particularly above Onondaga, that still need photos.
Mineral Fork3Ready for photos! I wouldn't mind knowing more about that access at 47, too.

Current River3Need a lot of photos for the next level.
Eleven Point1v1, placeholder entry with raw GeoJson
Jacks Fork3More photos, of course, but there are actually more caves and springs documented in the David Lewis books that need to find there way here.
