About this map

The Illinois Central Gulf railroad defines the north-south corridor of this Mississippi Delta landscape, connecting agricultural settlements like Thornton and Mileston. This 1982 survey captures a transition between the cultivated floodplains and the preserved wetlands of the Hillside National Wildlife Refuge. The terrain is marked by the sinuous remnants of old river paths, including the massive oxbow of Bee Lake and the smaller Horseshoe Lake.
