Poteau anchors the western edge of this landscape, where the town's grid meets a complex hydrological network defined by the meandering Poteau River. The waterway is characterized by its intricate oxbows and secondary channels, including the aptly named The Cutoff and the Lost Poteau River, which wind through the lowlands south of Robert S Kerr Airport. This river system creates a naturally fragmented terrain where smaller tributaries like Nail Creek, Gap Creek, and Double Branch Creek drain the surrounding fields.
