About this map

The Fourche La Fave River winds through the southern portion of this region, anchoring a landscape defined by the ridges of the Ouachita National Forest. This area of the Scott Co and Yell Co border is characterized by small, dispersed settlements like Blue Ball, Gravelly, and Nola. The map documents a rugged terrain of high points such as Petit Jean Mtn, Chop Off Mtn, and Dutch Creek Mtn, which are punctuated by natural passes including Honey Cut Gap and Callahan Gap.

Local history is preserved through numerous family and community landmarks, particularly the cemeteries that dot the countryside. Researchers can locate Egypt Cem near Dutch Creek, as well as Red Hill Cem and Young Gravelly Cem in the vicinity of Young Gravelly. The road network, including Cheyenne Rd and Nola Valley Rd, follows the natural contours of the valleys, connecting these remote outposts along the mountain flanks.
