2024 Map of Montgomery Island

About this map

The Mississippi River creates a complex borderland between Arkansas and Mississippi, defining the dynamic geography of this riverine corridor. Large landmasses like Montgomery Island and Big Island are shaped by the shifting currents and historical engineering, including the prominent Montgomery Cutoff. The landscape is saturated with smaller water bodies such as Coono Brake, Mud Slough, and the descriptively named Old Tar Paper Shack Lake. Human presence is marked by infrastructure tied to the river's edge, including Terrene Landing Rd and the Victoria Hunting Club Rd. Along the southern margin, the Rosedale Cem stands near the river, while the surrounding terrain is a network of bayous and chutes like Sixmile Bayou and Concordia Chute, reflecting the area's history of flooding and sediment deposit.
