Mitchell and Orleans anchor this section of southern Indiana, situated atop the limestone karst of the Mitchell Plain. The landscape is defined by its unique subterranean drainage, notably the Lost River which flows through the southern portion of the quadrangle before entering the Hoosier National Forest. These karst features have historically influenced the settlement and agriculture of the region, visible in the cluster of sinkholes and rolling topography surrounding Tom Rice Hill.
