Low-lying bottomlands and engineered drainage systems dominate this corner of Pike County, where the village of Hull and the town of Kinderhook occupy the higher ground above the floodplains of the Mississippi and Illinois Rivers. The complex hydrology of the region is evident in the network of man-made structures designed to manage silt and water flow, including the Pigeon Creek Settling Basin, the Walnut Creek Settling Basin, and the McCraney Diversion Ditch. These features, along with historic waterways like The Sny, define a landscape heavily modified for agriculture.
