1984 Map of Town Bluff

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

B A Steinhagen Lake dominates this East Texas landscape, formed by the impoundment of the Neches River at Town Bluff. The map illustrates a complex riparian environment where the river meanders through oxbows and backwaters south of the dam, including McMickin Lake and Barlow Lake at Cowart Bend. Significant portions of the shoreline and surrounding woodlands are dedicated to public lands, notably Martin Dies Jr State Park and the extensive Big Thicket National Preserve. The topography reveals the transition from the high ground of Pedigo Hill down to the bottomlands drained by Little Beech Creek and Push Rush Creek. The settlement of Dam B serves as a small anchor point near the reservoir's primary infrastructure, reflecting the mid-20th-century development of water management and recreational spaces in Tyler and Jasper counties.
