About this map

Big Cow Creek and Trout Creek define the drainage of this East Texas landscape, where the piney woods of Newton County meet industrial and recreational sites. The settlement of Call occupies the northwestern corner, while the eastern portion of the quadrangle is marked by the presence of the Newton Oil Field near Salem. This 2012 depiction captures a mix of traditional watercourse names and modern infrastructure, showing the complex network of creeks like Slaydons Creek and Nichols Creek that crisscross the terrain.

Outdoor and youth organization history is well-represented by Camp Otanya and Camp Bill Stark, both situated along the banks of Big Cow Creek. The map also details a network of named rural routes, including Magnum Road and Sod Buster Road, which connect these camps and small settlements. Hydrological features like Gum Slough and The Cutoff suggest the shifting nature of the local waterways over time.
