About this map

Reelfoot Lake and its surrounding wetlands dominate this 1964 landscape, illustrating a complex hydraulic system of spillways, levees, and floodgates designed to manage the Blue Basin. The area is a mosaic of conservation and agriculture, featuring the Lake Isom National Wildlife Refuge alongside the Reelfoot State Wildlife Management Area. Human settlement is anchored by Ridgely and Tiptonville, connected by the Illinois Central railroad corridor.
