Imboden Fork or Imboden Creek is a stream in Iron and Reynolds counties of southeast Missouri. [1] It is a tributary of the East Fork Black River.

The Imboden Fork headwaters arise in Iron County at 37°38′58″N90°46′23″W / 37.64944°N 90.77306°W / 37.64944; -90.77306 [1] at an elevation of about 1,340 ft (410 m) [2] and the confluence with the East Fork in Reynolds County is at 37°33′17″N90°50′40″W / 37.55472°N 90.84444°W / 37.55472; -90.84444 at an elevation of 833 ft (254 m). [1] The source area lies within the Mark Twain National Forest about three miles southwest of Belleview. The stream flows to the southwest and is followed by Missouri Route O through the forest. At its junction with Shut-in Creek the stream turns south and flows along Missouri Route MM past the community of Monterey and on to its confluence with the East Fork just north of Johnson's Shut-Ins State Park.

The stream was named for an early settler to the area. [5]
