1972 Map of Frisco City SE

About this map

The boundary between Monroe, Conecuh, and Escambia counties defines this southern Alabama landscape as it appeared in the early 1970s. The terrain is characterized by the winding path of Big Escambia Creek and Escambia Creek, which feed into the broader drainage network of the region. A significant landmark for fire detection in the timbered hills is the Wild Fork Lookout Tower, situated near the Monroe-Conecuh county line. The presence of the Old Railroad Grade running through the northwestern and southwestern sections indicates the remnants of former logging or industrial rail lines that once moved through these woods. Near the southern edge, the small settlement of Dean sits close to the Escambia County border, while Corter Creek flows through the undulating topography of the north. This survey, updated with 1981 aerial data, preserves the rural character of the land before modern developments changed the local forest and water management patterns.
