About this map

R L Harris Reservoir dominates this Randolph County landscape, where the rising waters of the Tallapoosa River branch into numerous inlets and flooded creek beds. The 2014 terrain shows the intricate shoreline surrounding Ofelia and the western outskirts of Wedowee, reflecting a region defined by modern water management and recreational development. High points like Cockrell Mtn provide a vertical contrast to the winding river valleys of Mad Indian Creek and the Little Tallapoosa River.

Genealogists and local historians can trace legacy landmarks through several burial grounds, including Pleasant Hill Cem, Shake Rag Cem, and Boozer Cem. The map documents a transition from traditional rural crossroad settlements like Liberty to contemporary lakeside living along corridors such as Hunter Bend Dr and Dam Rd. Significant river crossings, such as the Island Ford Bridge and Overton Bridge, anchor the transportation network across the expansive reservoir.
