About this map

The Petit Jean River carves a winding path through this Yell County landscape, flanked by the prominent ridge of Danville Mountain to the south. The river valley is characterized by complex hydrology, including the Elm Root Slough, Cape Slough, and Peeler Lake, illustrating the naturally shifting waterways before modern channelization. Settlement is dispersed across small communities such as Ranger, Lone Pine, and Kingston, connected by a network of rural routes like Kingston Rd and Peeler Gap Rd.

Genealogists and local researchers can identify family-named landmarks and historical sites, including the New Bethel Cemetery and the uniquely named Booze Hollow. Economic activity is evident in the presence of the Harris-Fish Farm Reservoir and its associated dam. The terrain transitions from the alluvial bottomlands near Cane Island to the elevated summits of Bunker Hill and the Surrounded Ridges, providing a clear view of the area's geography in the early 21st century.
