2024 Map of Hon

About this map

The Poteau River winds through this section of the Ouachita National Forest, framing a landscape defined by significant elevation changes between Poteau Mountain and Chalybeate Mountain. The small settlements of Hon and Winfield serve as the primary hubs for the surrounding rural homesteads and agricultural plots. Local genealogy is well-preserved through several family and community burial sites, including Anthony Cemetery and Sehorn Cemetery. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the Poteau Mountain Wilderness, where the terrain rises toward Hickory Knob and East Poteau Mountain. Water management features like the Poteau River Watershed Site Eight Lake and various creeks such as Bull Creek and Jones Creek illustrate the complex drainage system of the Scott County highlands.
