The confluence of the Illinois River and the Arkansas River defines this landscape in Sequoyah County, where the water has shaped both the economy and the settlement patterns. Just south of the Tenkiller Ferry Lake dam, the terrain drops from the wooded heights of Linder Mtn and Merford Ridge toward the alluvial flats near Webbers Falls. This area is rich in Cherokee cultural history, evidenced by the presence of Redbird Smith, named for the influential Cherokee leader, and several family burial grounds including the Gates Family Cem Gumsprings and the Stevenson Cem.
