2017 Map of Climax South

About this map

Attapulgus and Climax anchor the north and south ends of this Decatur County landscape, situated just west of the Grady County border. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses and family-named landmarks, including the high ground of Curry Hill and the drainage of Attapulgus Cr. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural community, indicated by the distribution of several small burial grounds such as Cedar Grove Cem, Samuel Cem, Conyers Cem, and Butler Cem. Industry and land use are reflected in specialized water features like Dubarco Incorporated Lake and Coastal Loan Company Lake. Local transit is characterized by a grid of named roads like Attapulgus Climax Rd and Lake Douglas Rd, which connect these small South Georgia settlements through the timber and agricultural lands of the Florida borderlands.
