About this map

Harrells Still and Pawnee are the primary settlement points in this pocket of Southwest Georgia, where the border between Mitchell and Grady counties is defined by Coline Rd. The landscape is characterized by a unique karst topography, evidenced by numerous named depressions and water features such as Gee Pond, Bay Pole Sink, and the colorfully named Glory Hole. These natural features suggest a subterranean drainage system common to the region, further highlighted by Waterfall Sink and Chambless Sink.

Agricultural and rural life is centered around a network of local roads and several family and community burial grounds, including Union Cem and Mizpah Cem. To the southeast, the Hawthorne Trail Lookout Tower stands as a prominent landmark near Whigham Lake, overlooking the drainage basins of Supp Cr and Buss Cr. The area is largely defined by these watercourses and the intermittent flows of Big Slough and Kelly Cr.
