USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
The Illinois River valley underwent a profound transformation with the creation of Tenkiller Ferry Lake, an expansive reservoir that dominates this Cherokee County landscape. By the early 1970s, the shoreline had become a complex network of recreational access points, including the Burnt Cabin Ridge State Park and numerous public use areas such as Sisemore Landing and Cookson Bend. The topography is characterized by steep, family-named heights like Wildhorse Mountain and Gordon Mountain that rise abruptly from the water's edge.
