About this map

Steve serves as the central settlement in this portion of Yell County, situated north of the meandering South Fourche LaFave River. The geography is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Graham Creek, Seaton Creek, and Bear Creek, which drain the varied elevations of Dry Fork Mountain and Powell Mountain. This 2011 survey reveals a landscape of forestry and rural transit, where named routes like Powell Mountain Rd and Gladstone Forest Rd weave through the timberlands.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by several remote burial sites, notably Nooner Cemetery and Shed Cemetery in the north, and Hames Number 2 Cemetery near the center of the sheet. The southern edge of the map captures a transition into the Ouachita drainage basin, marked by the presence of the North Fork Ouachita River. This topography reflects a region where the traditional reliance on river valleys for settlement meets the challenging heights of Potato Hill and surrounding ridges.
