2014 Map of Bluff City

About this map

Bluff City and the small settlements of Gum Grove and Dills Mills anchor this portion of Nevada County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of creek drainages and small-scale water features. The terrain is deeply carved by Caney Cr and Cypress Cr, which feed into the larger river systems of the region. Local history is preserved in the location of Saint Johns Cem and Gulley Cem, while the southern reaches of the map feature the Barham Lake Number One and Barham Lake Number Two reservoirs. A complex grid of county roads, such as Nevada 408 Rd and Nevada 47 Rd, connects these rural outposts. The map documents a classic Arkansas timberland and agricultural landscape, where the distribution of Morris and Cale reflects the long-standing settlement patterns of the Piney Woods region.
