2024 Map of Nichols Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

The Cossatot Mountains and Missouri Mountains dominate this section of the Ouachita National Forest in Polk County. This 2024 survey documents a landscape defined by sharp ridges and deep river valleys, with the settlement of Shady at the western edge serving as a focal point for the surrounding backcountry. Two significant protected waterways, the Cossatot Wild and Scenic River and the Little Missouri Wild and Scenic River, originate or traverse through these heights. The map details an extensive network of primitive paths like the Wolf Pen Gap 1 Trl and Caney Creek Trl, which provide access to high points such as Tall Peak and the Hanna Range. The southern portion is dedicated to the Caney Creek Wilderness, preserving a roadless environment around Porter Mountain and Katy Mtn.
