The Old Indian Treaty Boundary cuts diagonally through this landscape on the Illinois-Indiana border, marking a historic line of demarcation that precedes the established township grids. The area is defined by the winding course of the Vermilion River and Little Vermilion River, which carve through terrain features like Devils Backbone and Deadmans Hollow. A strong rail presence is evident through the mid-1960s, with tracks of the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific and the Norfolk and Western converging near the small settlement of Humrick.
