2015 Map of Pitkin

About this map

Pitkin serves as the central hub of this landscape, situated at the junction of several local routes such as Fullerton Blacktop Rd and Webster Maricle Rd. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, with Sixmile Creek and its many tributaries, including W Fork Sixmile Creek and E Fork Sixmile Creek, carving through the timberlands. Much of the northern half of the sheet is protected within the Kisatchie National Forest, while the southern reaches cross into Allen Parish and Beauregard Parish. Local history is anchored by Fullerton in the northwest and the small community of Dido to the southeast. Genealogists may find interest in the Mathis Cemetery, located just west of Pitkin, while the presence of named roads like Simmons Mill Rd and Jerry Nolen Rd suggests long-standing family ties and rural industries connected to the region's creek-fed geography.
