1989 Map of El Dorado

About this map

The Ouachita River and its massive Felsenthal Pool dominate the southeastern landscape of this late-twentieth-century study of Southern Arkansas and the Louisiana borderlands. This region, defined by the Gulf Coastal Plain, shows a complex network of water and timber management, with large-scale features like the Felsenthal National Wildlife Refuge and Poison Springs State Forest preserving significant acreage. The settlement pattern is anchored by regional hubs such as El Dorado, Camden, and Magnolia, connected by a mature highway system including U.S. 82 and Interstate 30.
