2010 Map of Knob Creek

About this map

The Obion River and Forked Deer River converge in this low-lying riverine landscape of West Tennessee, creating a complex network of wetlands and oxbow lakes. Numerous named bodies of water such as Dunham Lake, Rhodes Lake, and Hushpucket Lake define the western reaches of the quadrangle, illustrating the dynamic nature of these waterways before they meet the Mississippi. Much of the land is shaped by the shifting courses of these rivers, including the Old Bed Forked Deer River and the prominent Moss Island.
