About this map

The boundary between Lee Co and Harnett Co bisects a landscape defined by low ridges and an intricate network of wetlands in this 2016 survey. Small settlements such as Olivia, Barbecue, and Pineview are connected by a rural road system, while larger developments like Linden Oaks and Spout Springs mark the southern reach of the map. The terrain is notably punctuated by several named elevations, including Cameron Hill and Big Ridge, which rise above the expansive Gum Swamp and Reedys Swamp.

Water plays a central role in the area's layout, from the recreational waters of Buffalo Lakes and Silver Run Lake to the meandering courses of Barbecue Cr and Cypress Cr. For local historians and genealogists, the map identifies specific points of interest such as the Old Church Cem and Armstrong Cem. Aviation also has a clear footprint here, with the Pineview Air Airport and the William Irving Lewis Airport serving as distinctive landmarks in this part of North Carolina.
