About this map

Pineland stands as a primary point of reference in this landscape defined by an intricate network of wetlands and seasonal drainages along the border of Clinch and Echols counties. The terrain is characterized by numerous depressions and named bays, such as Savannah Bay, Tiger Bay, and Indian Bay, which suggest the low-lying, hydrologically sensitive nature of this South Georgia region. The drainage system is anchored by Suwannoochee Creek in the northeast and Toms Creek to the south, reflecting a landscape where water movement dictates land use.

Industrial and agricultural access is evident through a dense grid of named forest roads and tracks, including Gopher Lope Road, Bug Break, and Fales Steel Road. Notable geological features like Georgia Sink and localized high points such as Martin Hammock provide variety to the otherwise flat topography. This 2017 survey documents the modern layout of timber access and rural connectivity in a sparsely populated section of the Georgia coastal plain.
