The geology of the Jam Up Cave and Pine Crest quadrangles, Shannon, Texas, and Howell Counties, Missouri was mapped from 2005 through 2006 as part of the KARST (Karst Applied Research Studies Through geologic mapping) Project, Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center, U.S. Geological Survey. Funding supporting this work came from the USGS National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program and the National Park Service. The map supports the production of a geological framework that will be used in hydrogeologic investigations in the area of the Ozark National Scenic Riverways (National Park Service). Digital geologic data will be used by federal and state agencies in hydrogeologic analyses of the Ozark karst system and in ecological landscape models
