About this map

Danville and its surrounding Yell County landscape are defined by the winding course of the Petit Jean River and the rising timberlands of the Ouachita National Forest. This 2014 survey captures a rural landscape where family and community history are preserved in numerous small burial grounds, including the Earl Ladd Memorial Cem, Riley Creek Cem, and Cowger Cem. The valley floor is home to the settlements of Belleville and Corinth, which are linked by the AR 10 Hwy E corridor.

Terrain features like The Backbone and Danville Mtn provide a sharp contrast to the alluvial plains of the river, where oxbows and small lakes such as Horseshoe Lake and Buckman Lake point to the changing hydrology of the region. The presence of the Danville Municipal Airport and Cedar Creek Ranch Airport alongside traditional timber and farming areas indicates the varied economic uses of the valley in the early 21st century.
