About this map

The Buffalo National River carves a winding path through the northern reaches of this Searcy County landscape, passing through dramatic landmarks like Red Bluff and White Bluff. This region of the Ozarks is defined by its deep hollows and high points, such as Granny Mtn and Point Peter, where the rugged terrain historically shaped settlement patterns. The map document local genealogy through several family burial sites, including Abbey Cem, Slay Cem, and Whisenant Cem.

Central to the area is the community of Snowball, situated near the confluence of Calf Creek and several secondary routes like Searcy 11 Hwy. Further south, the Ozark National Forest marks the lower boundary of the quadrangle. The network of county roads, such as Manes Bluff Rd and Peter Cave Rd, provides access to smaller settlements like Blanco and Marsena, reflecting the persistent rural character of these Arkansas highlands.
