From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Powder Mill Spring is a spring in eastern Oregon County in the Ozarks of southern Missouri.[1] The spring lies on the west bank of the Eleven Point River approximately four miles north of the U.S. Route 160 crossing at Riverton.[2]

A variant name was "Powder Mill Bottom".[1] Powder Mill Spring was so named because a powder mill once occupied the valley.[3]
