Looking at Cedar Creek from Devil's Backbone -Asher Ferguson
Mouth: Missouri River
Public Access: Mark Twain National Forest
Name Origin: "The French named this stream because of the growth of cedar trees near its mouth. "At this place, also, the north bank of the Missouri assumes a most interesting appearance; it consists of a range of rocks, nearly perpendicular, from 130-150 feet high. They are composed of very white limestone, and their summits are covered to the edge with cedar."
