GEOLOGICAL SKETCH OF THE HOT SPRINGS DISTRICT, ARKANSAS.
By WALTER HARVEY WEED.


GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION

The Hot Springs of Arkansas are situated in the geographical center of the State, 50 miles distant from Little Rock and about 75 miles east of the Oklahoma line. The location is 600 feet above sea level and lies at the easterly base of the mountain complex known as the "Ouachita Range," the nearby peaks of which are oftentimes called the "Ozark Range," although that name really applies to the mountains in the northern part of Arkansas and the southern part of Missouri.
