Mississippi Alluvial Plain: The Mississippi River forms most of the eastern border of Arkansas between Tennessee and Louisiana. The Mississippi Alluvial Plain lies along the Mississippi River and covers the eastern third of Arkansas. Though most of the region is level Lowlands, the Mississippi Alluvial Plain is broken by a narrow strip of hills running north to south through the central Plain. These hills form Crowley's Ridge. The Mississippi Alluvial Plain is sometimes referred to as the Delta region and is covered with rich soil carried by the Mississippi River and its tributaries.
