2024 Map of Eudora NW

About this map

The town of Portland sits at the northwestern edge of this landscape, where the flat alluvial plains of the Arkansas Delta are defined by an intricate network of waterways. The meandering paths of Dry Bayou, Big Bayou, and Crooked Bayou dominate the drainage pattern, illustrating the hydrologic complexity of the region. These bayous are interspersed with agricultural tracts and woodlots, connected by a grid of rural routes including Portland Rd and Montgomery Rd. Further south, the settlement at Boeuf is situated near the slow-moving Lafourche Bayou and Fleschmans Bayou. This 2024 survey documents the contemporary arrangement of parish and county boundaries, specifically the Ashley Co Chicot Co line, which divides these agricultural lands. The map reflects a landscape deeply tied to its watercourses, where road placement and land divisions follow the natural contours of the ancient river floodplains.
