About this map

Carthage sits at the heart of this landscape, where a dense network of roads like Pinehurst Ave and Old Glendon Rd converge. The topography is defined by the complex drainages of the Little River and its numerous tributaries, including Killets Creek and Wads Creek. This drainage system has been extensively managed, resulting in a series of named reservoirs such as Long Leaf Lake, Fly Rod Lake, and Thagards Lake.

South of the main settlement, Hill Crest and Pleasantville mark smaller population clusters connected by rural routes like Murdocksville Rd and Bethlehem Church Rd. The presence of the Pine Lakes Shooting Preserve Lake in the southwest suggests a landscape used for managed recreation and sporting. This era of Moore County history shows a transition from traditional rural patterns to a more modern residential and recreational layout, visible in the winding drives of Edgehill Pkwy and Sunset Dr.
