About this map

Calico Mountain and the high ridges of the Ozark interior dominate this early topographic study, produced under the direction of J.W. Powell. The survey focuses on a narrow band of complex terrain, where drainage patterns like Chinkapin Br. and Jake's Cr. carve deep into the plateaus. A notable family-named landmark, Cotton's Cove, sits tucked between the peaks of Rich Mountain and Flat Top Mt., suggesting early mountain homesteads or hollows established decades before modern infrastructure reached this part of Logan. The work of topographer Henry Gannett reveals the steep relief and hydrological network of Cove Creek and Shoal Creek during a period of primary geographical documentation in Arkansas.
