If you have not used Google Maps before, on the left column you can click on ‘details’ and get directions. Now, their direction may not tell you what you want the way you want, so better check them against the map. Click on ‘gas’ and get the gas stations in the area.
Google Maps has a few challenges……1…it will not back track over the same section of highway, so some of the maps quit before they are fully home…check the notes. Also, sometimes for good reason or sometimes for no known reason, maps will not go over a section of road and will change the path a bit…again, check directions.
The easiest way to exit Branson northward is to go east on Shepherd Hills and turn left onto 248, then turn right onto either 76 or 160. The easiest way southward, is to go west on Shepherd Hills and then 376, turn left onto 265, follow it to 65.
