About this map

The Red River dominates this landscape along the state line where Arkansas and Louisiana meet, creating a complex network of waterways including the Sulphur River and the isolated Blue Hole. Small agricultural settlements like Canale and Pleasant Valley are linked by a grid of rural county roads such as Co RD 50 and Co RD 47. To the south, the community of Missionary sits near the namesake Missionary Lake, reflecting the early spiritual and social foundations of these river-valley townships. The presence of Blanton Cem and the unincorporated cluster of Smithville provide specific points of interest for those tracing family roots in this corner of Lafayette and Miller Counties. This 2020 map documents a low-lying terrain defined by active and dormant river channels, including Old Bed Rotten Lake and the meandering Dry Fork.
