About this map

Big Thicket National Preserve dominates this section of East Texas, where the dense piney woods meet the winding course of the Neches River. The landscape is a mosaic of conservation land and small-scale resource extraction, notably marked by a Gravel Pit and an Oil Well that hint at the local economy during the late 1970s and early 1980s. The settlement of Spurger serves as the primary hub, situated near the Spurger Lookout Tower, a vital landmark for forest monitoring in this heavily timbered region. To the north, the small community of Oldham sits near the confluence of Beech Creek and smaller tributaries like Mill Creek. The eastern boundary is defined by the river’s oxbows and the Tyler Co Jasper Co line, featuring riparian landmarks such as Round Lake and the drainage of Turner Branch.
