1935 Map of Red Fork

About this map

The Arkansas River dominates this mid-1930s landscape, its serpentine path defining the borders of Desha, Lincoln, and Arkansas counties. The river's dynamics are captured through numerous named bends and reaches, such as Almond Bend and Fletcher Bend, while abandoned meanders form oxbows like Silver Lake and Lake Dumond. This era reflects a period of intensive flood control following the Flood Control Act of 1935, visible in the levee systems and revetments that line the riverbanks.
