The Big Lake National Wildlife Refuge and the Big Lake Wilderness dominate the western half of this landscape, preserving a vast wetland ecosystem on the Arkansas-Missouri border. This environment is characterized by intricate waterways like the Right Hand Chute Little River and islands such as Gun Island and Hog Island. To the east, the terrain transitions into a highly managed agricultural grid, where a complex network of drainage canals—including Ditch Number 58, Ditch Number 63, and Ditch Number 26—reclaims the low-lying Delta land for farming.
