2024 Map of Mellwood

About this map

The Mississippi River defines the landscape of this Arkansas-Mississippi border region, creating a complex network of chutes and islands such as Island Number Sixtyfive and Jug Harris Towhead. The western bank in Phillips County is home to a string of small settlements including Mellwood, Lundell, and Ferguson, which are connected by a grid of rural routes like Phillips Road 533. The presence of Mosby Spur and the Delta Heritage Trl suggests a historical reliance on rail infrastructure that has since transitioned to recreational use.
