About this map

Pigeon Roost Mtn and Crystal Mtn define a complex upland landscape where the headwaters of several critical drainage systems emerge. The northern portion of this terrain is dominated by the Maumelle River and the southwestern reach of Lake Maumelle, while the southern reaches fall away toward the North Fork Saline River. The area is characterized by numerous named peaks and ridges, including the prominently situated Rattlesnake Mtn and Fall Mtn.

Local history and genealogy interests are centered on the Cold Spring Cem and the residential pocket of Alex Acres. A network of rural routes and specialized paths, such as Horseshoe Mountain Rd, Bishop Mtn Trl, and Wild Man Trl, suggests a landscape used for timber, recreation, or homesteading. The intersection of Pulaski, Perry, and Saline counties further emphasizes the area's role as a meeting point of distinct geographical and administrative zones.
