The Mississippi River defines the landscape of this border region between Missouri and Illinois, separating the wooded bluffs of Jefferson Co from the expansive river bottoms of Monroe County. High above the water, the settlement of Selma sits near several significant family burying grounds, including Barsotti Cem, Lucas Cem, and Donnell Cem. This area is characterized by deep ravines and geological formations, most notably the Cliffdale Hollow Natural Bridge and the namesake Cliffdale Hollow. Down on the river itself, the shifting nature of the waterway is evident in features like Calico Island, Harlow Island, and Beagles Island. Industrial and recreational development appear near Crystal City and Herculaneum, where the River Cement Company Lake and Conservation Club Lake mark the inland terrain north of the river's bends.
