2015 Map of Sparta

About this map

Sparta and the surrounding pine-clad uplands of Bienville Parish are defined by a complex network of parish roads and winding creek bottoms. This landscape in the mid-2010s shows a pattern of rural settlements and family landholdings, where old thoroughfares like Old Sparta Rd and Kepler Rd connect scattered residences. The terrain is deeply etched by water, with Sixmile Creek and Castor Creek draining the central sections, while Kepler Creek Lake sits to the northwest. The presence of Camp Ground Cemetery near the confluence of Edwards Mill Creek suggests long-standing community roots. To the southeast, the settlement of Lucky serves as a local hub near Blooms Mill Creek. The dense labeling of numerous parish roads, such as Parish Road 672 and Parish Road 686, reveals the high degree of accessibility into the timbered interior between these various drainages.
