About this map

The Mississippi River meanders through this landscape on the border of Arkansas and Mississippi, defining a terrain shaped by dynamic hydrology and decades of engineering. Massive oxbows like Lake Whittington and Chicot Lake tell the story of the river's shifting course, while the Caulk Cut-Off (1937) and Ashbrook Cut-Off 1935 demonstrate mid-century efforts to stabilize and shorten the channel. On the Arkansas bank, Arkansas City sits behind a network of dikes and revetments, while the Mississippi side is characterized by smaller agricultural settlements like Scott, Benoit, and Lamont.
