JACK CREEK.
Jack Creek rises just south of Clawson and four miles northwest
of Lufkin in northwestern Angelina County (at 31°24' N, 94°47'
W) and runs south for sixteen miles to its mouth on Long Slough
(at 31°13' N, 94°51' W). It traverses a flat to moderately
rolling landscape with loamy to sandy surface soils and reddish
mottled clayey or loamy subsoils. Local vegetation consists predominantly
of pine and hardwood forests, mesquite trees, and, where trees
have been cut, grasslands.
