2024 Map of Gillett

About this map

Gillett sits at the northern edge of this Delta landscape, where the shifting hydrology of the Arkansas River defines the terrain. The river's serpentine path is marked by dramatic oxbows and landforms like Thedford Bend, Bicker Bend, and Taylor Old River, illustrating the historical movement of the channel across the floodplain. Large portions of the eastern and southern sections are dedicated to the Dale Bumpers White River National Wildlife Refuge, a dense network of wetlands, bayous, and lakes including Moore Bayou and Moody Old River.
