About this map

White River and its major tributaries, including War Eagle Creek and Brush Creek, define the complex topography of this Arkansas landscape. The terrain is marked by prominent bluffs such as Helton Bluff and Martin Bluff, while the high points of Fitzgerald Mountain and Price Mountain rise above the surrounding valleys. The eastern edge of Springdale is visible, showing the expansion of the urban area and the location of the Springdale Municipal Airport alongside the St Louis San Francisco railroad line.

Local rural life is captured through a network of country schools and churches, including the Mountain Home Sch and the Southern Grove Ch. Water resources are central to the area's development, from the northern reaches of Beaver Lake to the smaller Lake Fayetteville in the southwest. Small family cemeteries like Phillips Cem and Dibler Cem are scattered throughout the hills, providing valuable markers of the region's genealogical history.
