The Mississippi River defines this riverine landscape at the border of Illinois and Missouri, where the channel is punctuated by landforms like Vancill Towhead and Swiftsure Towhead. On the eastern bank, the lowland drainage system of Running Lake Ditch and Number 7 Ditch manages the floodplain near Ware and Wolf Lake. To the west, the terrain rises into the hills of Cape Girardeau County, Missouri, where the small community of Egypt Mills and the historic river access at Moccasin Springs are situated.
