About this map

Chula sits within a dense network of ridges and drainages in the Ouachita National Forest, where the landscape is defined by its numerous named mountains and hollows. The settlement is positioned near Irons Fork, a significant waterway that cuts through the southern half of the map. To the north, prominent summits like Main Mtn and Persimmon Pond Mtn rise above Caney Cr and Norris Hollow, while the central area is dominated by the namesake Chula Mountain.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Chula Cem and Killian Cem located just east of the main settlement, providing specific points for ancestral research. The map reveals a transition from the higher elevations of Castle Ridge and Qualls Mtn down toward the lower drainage basins of Brantley Ranch Cr and Chula River Cr. This terrain pattern suggests a long-standing reliance on the narrow valley floors for transportation, connected by routes such as Co RD 2 and Co RD 72.
