2017 Map of Bay Branch

About this map

Bay Branch anchors this rural landscape along the boundary shared by Jenkins and Screven Counties. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries and small basins, including the headwaters of Ogeechee Cr and its S Fork Ogeechee Cr. Numerous ponds such as Middle Pond, Pierce Pond, and Pryor Pond are scattered throughout the agricultural and timber lands, suggesting a low-lying geography where water management and seasonal drainage shape the local economy.
