About this map

The Buffalo National River corridor winds through the northern portion of this quadrangle, shaping a landscape of dramatic bluffs and river bends. The waterway passes prominent features like White Bluff, Red Bluff, and Arnold Bend, illustrating the deep entrenchment of the river within the regional topography. This area is a significant corridor for recreation and preservation, featuring an extensive network of trails such as the Buffalo River/Ozark Highland Trl and the River View Trl.

Settlement patterns follow the high ground and creek valleys away from the primary river, centering on small communities like Snowball and Blanco. For those researching local family histories, the map identifies several small burial grounds, including the Old Arnold Cem and McDaniel Cem. The road network, including Searcy 231 Hwy and numerous county routes, connects these isolated hamlets across the drainage basins of Calf Creek and Lick Fork Creek.
