About this map

Deep piney woods and creek bottoms define this portion of Polk County, where the Big Thicket National Preserve protects the diverse ecosystem surrounding Menard Cr and Big Sandy Cr. The small settlements of Segno and Holly Grove are the primary hubs of human activity, connected by a network of rural roads and fire lanes. The presence of the Liberty Hill Lookout suggests the historical importance of forest fire monitoring in this heavily timbered region.

Local history is preserved at the Davis Cem near the northern boundary, while the winding course of Little Pine Island Bayou marks the southeastern landscape. The map reveals a transition from managed timberlands, evidenced by numerous fire lanes like the Segno Fire Ln, to the preserved wild spaces of the Big Thicket, offering a clear view of how conservation and local industry coexist in east Texas.
