About this map

Lake Ouachita dominates the southern landscape of this Garland County region, its northern shores deeply indented by the inundation of numerous creek valleys. The area is defined by the high ridges of the Ouachita National Forest, where landmarks like Ouachita Pinnacle and Blue Ouachita Mtn rise above the wooded terrain. Settlement is concentrated along the corridor of Highway 298, where the community of Hamilton and the historic Rock Springs area are located.

Genealogists can find the Rock Springs Cem positioned near the highway, serving as a focal point for local family history. The drainage patterns of Moccasin Cr, Big Blakely Cr, and Little Blakely Cr illustrate the complex watershed that feeds into the reservoir. A network of forest roads and trails, such as Pilotwood Rd and Dillard Rd, provides access into the more secluded northern sections of the forest.
