1980 Map of Powers Slough

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

L'Anguille River winds through the heart of this Poinsett County landscape, anchoring a network of drainage ditches, flumes, and natural watercourses characteristic of the Arkansas Delta. The 1980 state of the land reveals a sophisticated water management system designed to support the region's agricultural productivity, including the extensive Claypool Reservoir in the northern reaches. Scattered Landing Strips emphasize the reliance on aerial application for crop management across the flat, gridded terrain. Waterways like Bolivar Cr, Bear Branch, and England Creek provide natural drainage between the man-made flumes, while the meandering Powers Slough remains a distinctive feature of the local topography. This map documents the intersection of natural river systems and intensive land engineering in the late twentieth century.
