About this map

The Illinois River winds through the southern reaches of this Northwest Arkansas landscape, flowing past the historic Fisher Ford Bridge and through the rugged terrain of the Ozark National Forest. In the decade following the turn of the millennium, this region maintained a balance between its small-town centers and sprawling rural acreage. Key settlements like Gentry, Fairmount, and the western edge of Siloam Springs are interconnected by a network of local roads such as Ozark Valley Ln and Shady Grove Rd. For those researching family history, numerous burial sites are documented across the quadrangle, including the Flint Creek Cem and Lone Elm Cem. The area’s aviation ties are evidenced by Smith Field Airport and Williams Field Airport, while natural features like Martin Valley and Gum Springs Hollow define the undulating geography between the river and the northern prairies.
