2020 Map of Fannie

About this map

Lake Ouachita defines the southern reaches of this landscape, its complex, finger-like shoreline reaching into the valleys of the Ouachita National Forest. The map centers on the small settlements of Fannie and Liberty, situated where the northern mountains transition into the lake's watershed. This terrain is characterized by prominent ridges such as Sandlick Mtn and Reed Mountain, with numerous creeks including Irons Fork and Muddy Creek draining toward the reservoir. Local family history is rooted in several small burial grounds scattered across the area, specifically Lee Cem, Breashears Cem, and Oakwood Cem. The presence of the Ouachita National Recreation Trail and named forest roads like Whippoorwill Rd and Red Ridge Rd highlights the area's modern identity as a managed wilderness and recreational hub at the borders of Montgomery, Yell, and Garland Counties.
