2024 Map of Bagley Lake

About this map

Holly Springs National Forest dominates the eastern half of this Lafayette County landscape, where the headwaters of Puskus Creek and Bagley Creek carve through the woodland. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributary branches, including Bay Springs Branch and Fourmile Branch, which flow toward the larger drainage of Hurricane Creek. These watercourses historically shaped the settlement patterns of northern Mississippi, dictating the placement of early homesteads and community burial grounds away from the flood-prone bottoms.
