About this map

The Dugdemona River meanders sharply through this central Louisiana landscape, marking the northern boundary of the Kisatchie National Forest. The settlement of Georgetown serves as a primary hub in the southeastern corner, while smaller points like Zion, Curry, and Tansey anchor the surrounding timberlands and hills. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage, including Anderson Creek and Kees Branch, which flow through the lowland sections and the Catahoula National Wildlife Management Area.

Resource extraction is evident with a documented Oil Field located north of the river near Pope Creek. The map also captures the Louisiana Meridian as it bisects the quadrangle, providing a technical look at the state's historical surveying framework. To the west, the Pardon Hills rise above the confluence of Big Creek and Hemphill Branch, showing the elevation changes that characterize this portion of Grant and Winn Parishes.
