About this map

The White River winds through the heart of this Arkansas landscape, creating a complex network of oxbows and backwaters that define the boundary between Arkansas and Monroe counties. Small settlements like Crocketts Bluff and St. Charles are linked by a grid of rural roads such as Widener Rd and Hunt Rd, reflecting a landscape built around the river's path and agricultural drainage.

Evidence of local heritage is preserved in sites like Saint John Cem and Hopewell Cem, while the intricate system of named wetlands, including Beaver Dam Lake, Browns Shanty Lake, and Upper Hooked Lake, illustrates the natural hydrology of the Mississippi Delta region. The presence of Tarleton Ditch and Lambert Bayou highlights the historical efforts to manage these waterways for settlement and cultivation.
