About this map

Little Texas and the surrounding woodlands of the Ouachita National Forest define this landscape along the border of Scott and Yell Counties. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of ridges and drainages, including Fourche La Fave River and its various tributaries such as Jennings Creek and Spiller Creek. This 2014 survey reveals an area largely shaped by forestry and small-scale infrastructure, with local landmarks like Linn Barker Mtn and Ganders Peak rising above the timberline.

Genealogists and local historians can trace family-named features across the topography, from Skaggs Hollow and Huse Mire Hollow to Herron Ridge. The road network includes descriptive local names like Million Dollar Hwy and Little Texas Rd. Many distinctive points of interest, such as Bee Knob, Goat Knob, and Bread Tray Hollow, illustrate the traditional naming conventions of this Arkansas river valley region.
