About this map

The northern edge of Kountze and the surrounding Piney Woods of Hardin County are documented in this 2010 survey. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Village Creek and its many tributaries, including Beaumont Creek, Pea Monk Branch, and Hickory Creek. Significant local history is found in the scattered rural burial grounds, such as Olive Cemetery and Providence Cemetery, which mark early settlement patterns in the timber-rich region.

Resource extraction and recreation are key facets of this quadrangle, shown through the East Village Mills Oil Field in the northwest and Camp Matigwa to the east. The terrain transitions toward Bear Grass Ridge in the southeast, while a complex network of local routes like Gore Store Rd and Dynamite Chesser Rd provides access through the dense woodland. This map effectively captures the intersection of Hardin County’s petroleum industry, water resources, and community heritage.
