The Black River defines the western edge of this Jackson County landscape, weaving through a series of dramatic oxbows and bends including Eagle Lake Bend and Battle Axe Bend. This hydrography suggests a dynamic floodplain history, evidenced by numerous remnant channels like Bee Tree Slough, Persimmon Slough, and Grunnel Slough. These natural water features contrast with the straight lines of the Tuckerman Ditch and Hatcher Ditch to the south, which indicate efforts to manage the low-lying terrain for agriculture.
