About this map

The Arkansas River and its broad bottomlands dominate this 2020 landscape, marking the intersection of Faulkner, Pulaski, and Perry counties. To the south, the terrain rises into the foothills where Little Italy sits along the ridge, flanked by prominent elevations like Kryer Mtn and Moss Mtn. This area reflects a deep-rooted cultural geography, evidenced by small rural settlements and a network of family-associated cemeteries such as Saint Francis Cem, Faisst Cem, and Rainey Cem.

The southern portion of the quadrangle is defined by the expansive waters of Lake Maumelle, where the shorelines reach into the valleys of Stillhouse Br and Reece Cr. This map documents a region where the agricultural legacy of places like Lollie and Ledwidge meets the recreational and ecological importance of the river and reservoir system. Significant topographical landmarks, including Easterwood Mtn and Kenney Mtn, provide a clear view of the natural borders that have historically shaped local movement and settlement patterns.
