About this map

The timberlands and creek-threaded terrain of Deep East Texas take center stage in this mid-1980s provisional survey. Established within the Sabine National Forest, the landscape is defined by the expansive waters of the Sam Rayburn Reservoir along its western edge. Small settlements such as Pineland, Brookeland, and Browndell serve as local hubs, while smaller, informally named points like Stringtown and Stumptown reflect the rural settlement patterns typical of the region.

Complex drainage systems including McKim Creek, Blackjack Creek, and Sixmile Creek carve through the forest, leading toward the reservoir and its associated bayous like Trout Bayou. The presence of the Municipal Airport near Pineland and various pipelines indicates the local infrastructure of the era, while topographic markers such as Walker Hill and Chinquapin Hill provide landmarks for those navigating the dense piney woods.
