About this map

Hughes and its surrounding agricultural communities define this segment of the Delta near the Arkansas and Mississippi border. This 2014 survey captures a landscape carved by winding waterways and established road networks, including US 79 Hwy S and Ar-38. The town center of Hughes is detailed with local streets like Main St and S Broadway St, while nearby North Hughes and the residential area of Belle Meade illustrate the regional settlement pattern.

Evidence of the local aviation and social infrastructure appears at Tucker Field Airport and the Saint Marys Cem near Midway. Natural drainage is dominated by the serpentine paths of Fifteenmile Bayou and Crooked Bayou, which weave through the lowlands between Penjur and the southern reaches of Reese. The map also documents several oxbow features and lakes, such as Taylor Lake and Goose Lake, characteristic of the Mississippi River floodplain's complex hydrology.
