About this map

The Petit Jean River winds through the heart of this Yell County landscape, connecting the settlements of Belleville, Corinth, and the county seat at Danville. The river's path is marked by distinctive oxbows and riparian features like Horseshoe Lake and Mason Lake. To the south, the terrain rises sharply into the Ouachita National Forest, where ridges such as Dutch Creek Mtn and Danville Mtn overlook the Dutch Cr valley.

Family history is well-preserved across the map through numerous small burial grounds, including the Thompson Cem, Lynch Cem, and Harris Cem. The area's transit and infrastructure are anchored by two local airfields, Cedar Creek Ranch Airport in the north and Danville Municipal Airport near the center. Lowland agriculture and timber give way to the prominent Dowel Town Ridges and The Backbone, reflecting the varied topography between the river basin and the National Forest boundary.
