1972 Map of Holla Bend

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Holla Bend National Wildlife Refuge dominates the landscape south of the Arkansas River, occupying a large loop formed by the river's shifting course and the Holla Bend Cutoff. This early 1970s survey captures a transition between the wild river bottoms and the established agricultural and rail communities of Pope and Yell counties. To the north, the Missouri Pacific railroad serves the settlements of Pottsville and Worthen, while the floodplain to the south is marked by the distinct Carden Bottom. Local genealogy is well-documented through a high density of rural burial sites, including Shinn, Pisgah, and Plott. The area's conservation focus is evident in the inclusion of the Galla Creek State Wildlife Management Area, preserving the marshy terrain around Galla Creek and Flagg Lake.
