About this map

Arkabutla Lake dominates the northern landscape, where the waters reach into Sunfish Bay and surround prominent landforms like Hernando Point and Bayou Point. This 2018 survey documents the intricate shoreline and surrounding drainage systems of the Coldwater River basin, including Hickahala Cr and the winding course of Arkabutla Creek. To the south, the terrain transitions into the residential and commercial outskirts of Senatobia, while the small settlement of Arkabutla sits near the dam site in the west.

Local history is preserved in landmarks such as Morris Cem and family-named roads that crisscross the undulating country south of the reservoir. The map details a modern transportation network, from the local hub of Senatobia to rural routes like Hogs Foot Rd and Brooks Chapel Rd, illustrating the intersection of late 20th-century water management projects with long-standing Mississippi communities.
