About Greasy Hills
The Greasy Hills is a small mountain range located in southern Missouri. Geologically, the range consists primarily of steep, forested ridges and knobs formed from ancient volcanic and sedimentary rock formations. The terrain is rugged and undulating, with numerous rocky outcrops, caves, and narrow canyons carved by small streams. Despite the range's modest elevations, the Greasy Hills offer a sense of remoteness and wilderness uncommon in the Ozarks region.
