About this map

Lake Wilhelmina anchors the northwestern corner of this landscape, where the waters of Powell Creek and the East Fork Powell Creek are managed among the timbered ridges. To the south, the terrain transitions into the protected slopes of the Ouachita National Forest, dominated by the prominent peaks of Dallas Mountain and Potter Mtn. The settlement pattern follows the lower elevations between these mountains, with small communities like Potter, Potter Junction, and Rocky serving as local hubs for the surrounding rural roads.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites throughout the area, reflecting generations of local family history. From the Mount Gillian Cem and Foster Cem in the central valley to the Antioch Cem near Joshling Creek in the southwest, these landmarks provide specific points of reference for tracing ancestors. The western edge of Mena appears on the eastern boundary, showing the suburban expansion toward the forest edge near Oak Grove Cem and Mount Calvary Cem.
