About this map

Ouachita National Forest covers the majority of this landscape, where the ridges of Walker Mtn, Brushy Mtn, and the namesake Horseshoe Mountain create a complex system of hollows and creek beds. The drainage network is particularly dense here, with Black Fork and Denton Cr winding through the timbered terrain. Small settlements like Beauchamp and Brawley serve as local anchors, connected by a web of rural routes such as Jones Creek Co and Angelfalls Rd.

Water management and local history are evident in the numerous reservoirs and family burial grounds scattered throughout the quadrangle. Several man-made water bodies, including Lake Hinkle and the Poteau River Watershed Site 12 Reservoir, indicate modern hydrological engineering in this corner of Scott County. For those tracing local roots, the map provides precise locations for several cemeteries, including Walnut Grove Cem and Piney Grove Cem, often situated near older roads like Bluebird Rd and Tintop Rd.
