About this map

The Caddo River winds through this section of the Ouachita foothills, connecting the communities of Amity and Glenwood. This 2020 survey details a landscape defined by its river-valley agriculture and the rugged margins of the Ouachita National Forest to the north. The settlement pattern is anchored by family and community heritage, evidenced by numerous burial grounds such as Shiloh Cem, Newcomb Cem, and Jones Cem which are scattered across the terrain from the river flats to the ridges of Trap Mtn.

Local landmarks like Sugarloaf Knob and Little Mtn provide vertical relief in an area primarily managed for timber and small-scale farming. The inclusion of Welsh and the presence of Kirksey Reservoir further illustrate the water-dependent development of this region. Navigational details include established routes like Republic Rd and Grants Farm Rd, reflecting the modern rural infrastructure of Clark, Pike, and Montgomery counties.
