Billys Island stands as a prominent elevation within the heart of the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge and Wilderness, showing a landscape where human industry and nature have long intersected. The presence of Lee Cem and an extensive network of the Old Railroad Grade reveal a history of settlement and logging that predates the federal protection of the swamp. These tracks crisscross the terrain between Jackson Bay and Honey Island, marking the paths once used to extract timber from the deep interior.
