2011 Map of Pinnacle Mountain

About this map

Pinnacle Mountain towers over the confluence of the Maumelle River and the Little Maumelle River in this 2011 survey of the western outskirts of Little Rock. The landscape is defined by the broad reach of the Arkansas River and David D Terry Lake, where suburban expansion meets the steep relief of the Fulk Mountains and Shinall Mountain. Residential growth is evident in the sprawling developments of Maumelle and Walton Heights, yet the map preserves numerous small family and institutional burial grounds including the Old Soldiers Cemetery, Grimmette Cemetery, and Aaron Cemetery. Of particular interest is the Maumelle Balloonport near Lake Valencia, reflecting local aviation history. The area north of Rock Creek shows a high density of planned communities like Pleasant Valley and Hickory Hills, while more established pockets like Natural Steps and Ivesville maintain their distinct placement along the river's edge.
