About this map

The De Soto National Forest dominates this landscape in southern Mississippi, where the Black Creek Wild and Scenic River carves a path through the pines. Small settlements like Barbara and Steve Hills are connected by a network of rural routes, including Snider Rd and N E Breland Rd. For those researching local families, the map is a vital resource, identifying several secluded burial grounds such as Thomas Cem, Cochran Cem, and Miles Cem.

Military and recreational interests intersect here, with the presence of MTA Camp Shelby in the northeast and the Black Creek Trail following the river's bend. Notable geological and water features include the Red Hills, Lang Lake, and numerous named tributaries like Hickory Creek and Sweetwater Cr. The map details a quiet, forested region where small creek-side settlements like Deep Creek persist alongside protected wilderness and longstanding family landmarks.
