Ozark Mountains
Missouri-Arkansas plateau region
The Ozark Mountains are a highland region in the south-central United States, covering much of southern Missouri and northern Arkansas with extensions into Oklahoma and Kansas.
More plateau than true mountains, the Ozarks feature rolling hills, deep hollows, caves, and springs.
The region is associated with rural Appalachian-style culture, bluegrass music, and isolated communities: They spent summers in the Ozarks.
Often shortened to the Ozarks.
