Arkansas Post National Memorial preserves the site of the first permanent European settlement in the Mississippi River Valley, situated at the significant confluence where Little Post Bayou meets the Arkansas River. This modern survey documents the intricate water network of the Post Bend, including the Arkansas Post Canal and Merrisach Lake, which serve as vital components of the regional navigation and flood control systems. The landscape is characterized by its transition from the agricultural plains surrounding Gillett to the dense bottomland hardwoods of the Dale Bumpers White River National Wildlife Refuge.
