2014 Map of Sugar Grove

About this map

Sugar Grove and Mountain Grove anchor the central landscape of this western Arkansas valley, where the Petit Jean River meanders toward the northwest through Horseshoe Bend. The northern reach of the Ouachita National Forest dominates the southern half of the map, revealing a transition from the agricultural river flats to the steep ridges of Hole in the Ground Mtn and Montgomery Mtn. Local family history is well-represented through numerous burial sites, including the Logan Cem, Ethan Davis Cem, and Helton Cem. The drainage pattern is complex, defined by the convergence of Sugar Cr and Jack Cr before they meet the primary river system. This survey captures the rural character of the Logan and Scott county line area, documenting an intricate network of local roads such as Old Sugar Grove Rd and Hog Thief Valley Rd that connect isolated farmsteads and mountain gaps.
