1976 Map of Salem SE

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Salem sits at the northern edge of this 1976 orthophotoquad, a specialized map type that combines aerial imagery with topographic precision. The landscape of north-central Arkansas is captured here as a detailed mosaic of forest patches and cleared pastureland, revealing the rural land-use patterns of the mid-1970s. The winding course of the South Fork Spring River cuts through the eastern portion of the quadrangle, serving as a primary drainage for the area's undulating terrain. Near the western margin, the settlement of Wheeling appears as a small cluster of structures. Unlike traditional line-drawn maps, this aerial perspective allows for the direct observation of field boundaries, farmstead layouts, and the dense tree cover characteristic of the region before further modern development.
