The county encompasses the rugged Ouachita Mountains with dense pine and hardwood forests covering steep ridges and narrow valleys. The Poteau River flows northward through the county creating fertile bottomland between forested hills.
Small-scale cattle operations graze forest openings and creek bottom pastures with coastal bermuda grass and native forage. Timber harvesting provides major agricultural income while hay production in valley bottoms supports local livestock operations.
