About this map

University of Arkansas at Monticello anchors the northern portion of this landscape, just south of the main streets of Monticello. The transition from the urban grid of S Main St and E College Ave into the residential area of College Heights gives way to a network of rural roads and creek drainages. Significant local history is preserved in the placement of small burial grounds like Rough and Ready Cem and Baker Cem, which sit alongside the tributaries of Clear Cr and Brown Cr.

Southwest of the town, the terrain becomes increasingly defined by its watercourses, including Snake Hole Cr and Delaney Br. The presence of New Hope and the Friendship Cem at the western edge of the survey area suggests the enduring layout of rural communities along corridors such as State Hwy 172. The map details the drainage patterns of the S Fork Clear Cr, showing how the geography shifts from institutional and residential use in the north to more dispersed land use in southern Drew County.
