2016 Map of Lafayette

About this map

Stigler occupies the northern edge of this landscape, its grid expanding south toward the winding waters of Sans Bois Creek. The area is defined by its topographic transition from the level reaches of Pruit Valley and Shropshire Valley toward the more varied terrain of Seven Devils Mtn in the east. The rural community of Lafayette serves as a central hub for the network of county roads that crisscross the agricultural land. Evidence of local history and industry is scattered throughout, from the Siloam Springs Cem to the industrial presence of Lone Star Steel Lake in the southeast. Water management is a prominent theme, with several impoundments including Stigler Lake and Robert Mitchell Lake serving the population centers and surrounding livestock farms.
