2024 Map of Tarver

About this map

Tarver and the surrounding piney lowlands of Echols County are defined by an intricate network of wetlands and seasonal water bodies. This 2024 landscape is characterized by its numerous bays, including Beaverdam Bay, Tarver Bay, and Fiftythree Bay, which serve as natural drainage and habitat zones within the flat terrain. Settlements like Alexis in the north and Potter to the south are linked by a grid of rural connectors such as Barnes RD and Haylow RD. The hydrology of the area is further marked by the presence of Toms Creek and the meandering Alligator Creek. Distinctive land features like Buzzard Island and Whiskey Island rise slightly above the surrounding marshes, while the label for Little Rice Field points to the area's agricultural history and land use patterns.
