1967 Map of Spooner

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The dense marshlands and blackwater drainages of the Okefenokee Swamp dominate this experimental 1960s study, which utilized a photogrammetric mosaic to record the complex hydrology of the Georgia interior. The landscape is characterized by a labyrinth of watercourses including Rooty Branch, Surveyors Creek, and Goose Branch that feed into the protected grounds of the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge. Small settlements and isolated landmarks provide critical human context among the wetlands, such as the Antioch Ch and the Lookout Tower near Spooner. The presence of the Dismal Logging Tram and the rail junction at The Wye near Jamestown highlights the historical timber industry and infrastructure required to navigate this saturated terrain. Notable landmasses like Gainey Island and Stevens Bay rise above the surrounding swamp, marking the divide where Ware Co meets Clinch Co.
