USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
The county seat of Kountze stands at the junction of the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe and the Texas and New Orleans railroads, serving as a hub for the region's timber and petroleum industries. To the south, the settlement of Old Hardin represents the former county seat, while the Kirby Lumber Tram and various old railroad grades reveal the heavy footprint of historical logging. The landscape is a mix of dense baygalls and cypress brakes, with Village Creek winding south toward the coastal plain.
