1984 Map of Deserter Baygall

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Big Thicket National Preserve dominates the eastern landscape of this Hardin County area, protecting a complex network of wetlands and dense woodlands. The terrain is defined by the slow movement of water through features like Deserter Baygall and Deserter Island, illustrating the distinctive biological and hydrological character of the region. Local watercourses including Boggy Creek, Mill Creek, and the seasonally variable Dry Creek snake through the low-lying topography. The map reveals the intricate drainage patterns of the Texas Gulf Coastal Plain, where narrow corridors like Jack Gore and Baygall Gore feed into larger sloughs. While mostly comprised of natural bottomlands, the presence of a lone Cem and scattered structures near Caney Head mark the sparse human footprint within this protected wilderness during the late 1970s and early 1980s.
