1970 Map of Luna

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Mississippi River dynamics define this riverfront landscape along the border of Arkansas and Mississippi, where the migrating channel has left a complex network of chutes and oxbows. The map documents the shifting hydrology of the region, specifically noting the Panther Forest Crevasse 1892-1912, a historical breach in the river's bank. Settlement is concentrated along the higher ground of the Levee, with Gaines Landing, Luna, and Leland serving as focal points for local navigation and transport. A massive Railroad line cuts across the oxbow of Linwood Neck, while significant water bodies like Ashbrook Lake, Paradise Lake, and Lake Chicot provide a look at the former river courses. The area south of Luna Bar shows the intricate geography of Woodstock Island, flanked by Hardwood Hill and the long expanse of Backbone Ridge.
