1982 Map of Beatrice

About this map

The University of Mississippi Forest and De Soto National Forest dominate this South Mississippi landscape, where timber and wildlife management define the land use. The small settlement of Beatrice sits at the northern edge, while the rest of the terrain is a complex drainage basin for the Tuxachanie Creek and Little Red Creek systems. The map captures an era of state-managed conservation within the Red Creek State Wildlife Management Area, showing a network of unimproved roads and fire trails essential for forest maintenance.
