1977 Map of Potato Peaks

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Latham and Kennady are the primary points of settlement in this orthophotoquad study produced by the Geological Survey and the Soil Conservation Service. Based on 1977 aerial imagery, the landscape is defined by the high, wooded ridges of the Ouachita Mountains, most notably Potato Peaks in the east and the long spines of Russell Mountain and Wolf Mountain. These peaks create a dramatic topography of shadow and light in the photographic record. The drainage patterns of the region are clearly visible as they wind around the northern foothills, including the meandering paths of Brazil Creek and Dog Creek. This document captures the transition between the high forest cover of the mountains and the cleared agricultural plots and rural roads surrounding the small communities, providing a literal view of the land as it was used in the late 1970s.
