About this map

The Mississippi River defines the western edge of this landscape, its path marked by deep meanders like Mhoon Bend and the oxbow waters of Old River Lake. The terrain is a network of bayous and lakes, including Beaverdam Lake and Flower Lake, reflecting the hydrological complexity of the Delta before modern flood control efforts reached their contemporary peak. The Illinois Central railroad runs north-to-south, anchoring the primary settlements of Tunica and Hollywood, which serve as the commercial hubs for this agricultural region.
