About this map

The Red River meanders across the border of Arkansas and Texas, carving a complex landscape of oxbows and riparian wetlands. This 2016 survey documents the shifting hydrologic patterns of the region, where the river's historical path is preserved in features like Hudson Bow and Applewhite Cut-off Lake. The terrain transitions from the low-lying Black Bottom to the elevated grounds of Smith Hill, where local settlements are concentrated.

Genealogists and local historians can trace family ties through Red Oak Grove Cem and Hughes Cem, while map collectors will note the dense network of drainage sloughs and bayous, including Walnut Bayou and Crooked Slough. Small communities such as Burns and Redbank are situated along the south side of the river, connected by a network of farm-to-market roads and county routes that navigate the intricate system of lakes like Smith Club Lake and LaVoice Lake.
