About this map

The Illinois River flows across this corner of the Ozark plateau, cutting through a landscape of hollows and high prairies just east of Siloam Springs. The terrain transitions from the open stretches of Lindsley Prairie to the intricate drainages of Martin Valley and Gum Springs Hollow. This 2024 survey captures a rural network of family and community landmarks, including numerous burial grounds like Lone Elm Cem, Fairmount Cem, and Shady Grove Cem.

Conservation areas are prominent in the eastern half of the map, where the Logan Cave National Wildlife Refuge and a section of the Ozark National Forest protect the karst features and woodlands near the Benton and Washington county line. Small settlements such as Gallatin, Logan, and Pedro remain centered around historic road intersections like Old Hwy 68 E, reflecting the enduring settlement patterns of the northwestern Arkansas highlands.
