About this map

The White River carves a complex, winding path through Monroe and Prairie Counties, defining the landscape around Clarendon. This delta region is defined by its intricate hydrology, where the main river channel is joined by the Cache River and numerous oxbow formations like Upper Old River and The Horn. The map reveals the relationship between the elevated settlement at Clarendon and the surrounding wetlands, which are dotted with descriptively named landmarks such as Dead Man Point, Hole in the Wall, and Big Eddy Point.

Away from the riverbanks, the land transitions to a managed grid of roads like Pine Tree Rd and small communities such as Jeffries. For those tracing local heritage, the inclusion of Shady Grove Cem and Bateman Cem provides specific points of interest. The southern portion of the quadrangle shows the expansive Big Baptize Lake and Bear Slough, illustrating the persistent aquatic nature of the Arkansas lowlands.
