Spring Creek (Missouri Blue Ribbon)
Spring Creek completes the Missouri Blue Ribbon set already partly represented by Crane, Current, Eleven Point, North Fork White, Little Piney, Mill, Barren Fork and Blue Springs. It is a small wild-rainbow page: useful for completeness and the Blue Ribbon Slam logic, but it needs exact boundary and access verification before confident surfacing.
