About this map

Greers Ferry Lake dominates this Van Buren County landscape, its sprawling waters defining the modern geography of Edgemont, Higden, and Whispering Springs. The reservoir, formed by the impoundment of the Little Red River, has transformed former valley lands into a complex shoreline of points and hollows. Local navigation and recreation center around infrastructure like the Edgemont Bridge and several boat access points, including Hill Creek Marina, Narrows Marina, and Shiloh Marina.

Beyond the lake's edge, the map reveals upland features such as Wilburn Knob and Poker Hill, alongside smaller water bodies like Dunaway Lake. Evidence of the area's older rural character persists in the Bailey Cemetery and small communities like Post Oak and Lone Pine. This survey documents a region where contemporary lakeside development intersects with traditional Ozark terrain, marked by numerous named hollows including Eva Turnley Hollow and Wildcat Hollow.
