1967 Map of Robert S Kerr Dam

About this map

Robert S Kerr Reservoir dominates the northern landscape of this region where the Arkansas River winds through the borderlands of Sequoyah, Haskell, and Le Flore counties. The terrain transitions from the inundated Blaine Bottom to the high ground of Sans Bois Mountain and Gingle Mountain. Human activity is marked by a scattering of gas wells and resource extraction, including a strip mine and coal deposits in the south. The settlement of Cowlington sits at a geographic crossroads between the reservoir and the upland ridges. Local history is preserved in several burial grounds, such as Short Mountain Cem and Brent Cem, while technical infrastructure like the powerplant and gaging station near the river indicates the era's focus on hydroelectric management and water control.
