About this map

Vanndale and the northern outskirts of Wynne anchor this portrait of Cross County, where the Crowley's Ridge terrain meets the alluvial delta. The landscape is defined by its water management and agricultural grid, featuring the meandering L'Anguille River and numerous catchments including Pufahl Reservoir and the Caney Cr Site One Reservoir system. These water bodies, along with Gardner Lake and Hall Lake, illustrate the complex drainage and irrigation infrastructure essential to this region of Arkansas.

Local history and genealogy are well-represented by long-standing community markers such as Warren Cem and Mt Maria Cem. Small settlements like Mersman and Fair Field dot the rural sections of the quadrangle, connected by a dense network of county roads and state routes like Ar-364. The transition from the elevated ridge on the east to the lower river bottoms on the west creates a distinct topographical contrast visible through the contour intervals.
