1990 Map of Helena

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Crowleys Ridge rises as a prominent geologic feature amidst the delta lowlands, anchoring the western side of the Mississippi River valley. This 1990 survey captures a complex riverine landscape defined by shifting channels and backwater bayous, including Whiskey Island and Hardin Point. The settlement pattern reflects the area's agricultural and transportation history, with rail lines like the Missouri Pacific RR and St Louis Southwestern RR connecting towns such as Marianna, Forrest City, and the river port of Helena. To the east, the Coldwater River and Arkabutla State Wildlife Refuge dominate the Mississippi side of the map. Between the river's winding oxbows like Horseshoe Lake and the protected woodlands of the St Francis National Forest, the map reveals a region carefully managed for both commerce and conservation in the late twentieth century.
