The settlement of Wells anchors this 2016 survey of the East Texas bottomlands, situated near the southwestern edge of the quadrangle. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Angelina River, which serves as a natural boundary between Nacogdoches and Cherokee counties. This riparian corridor is marked by a complex system of oxbows and wetlands, including Durst Lakes, Eagle Lake, and Horseshoe Lake. The presence of the Old River Channel and Warner Slough indicates the shifting hydrology of the river basin over time.
