1980 Map of Athens

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Athens settlement and the nearby community of Henry sit at the intersection of a complex mountain landscape where the Ouachita National Forest meets managed wildlife lands. The terrain is defined by high ridges like Big Tom Mountain and Paul Mountain, with the Little Missouri River and the Saline River carving through the valleys. This 1980 survey captures the area's rural character, showing the distribution of family and community landmarks such as White Oak Cem, Pullman Cem, and Mizels Chapel. Small-scale industrial activity is evident in the Slate Pit and Shale Pit located south of the primary settlement. The northern portion of the map highlights the transition into the Albert Pike Recreation Area, where numerous mountain branches like Greasy Branch and Viles Branch feed into the larger river systems.
