Big Hill Pond started as a hole in the ground. In 1853 the Memphis and Charleston Railroad dug dirt out of the McNairy County river bottoms to build a levee, and the hole it left became a 35-acre shallow pond, now ringed with bald cypress. Climb the observation tower at sunset for the long view over the lake and the timberland around it.

The design: the still, cypress-ringed pond with its knees and a pale sycamore on a misty spring morning, the old railroad levee beyond, drawn in a flat vintage park-poster style inside a Tri-Star red frame, with BIG HILL POND up top, TENNESSEE PRIDE® below and the Tri-Star on the left sleeve.

Printed on the Bella+Canvas 3001: soft, lightweight, with just the right amount of stretch.

Every park design is an illustration in a vintage poster style. We simplify each scene to make a good poster, so it won't match the park detail for detail. Colors can also look a little different in person than on your screen.

About the place

Big Hill Pond State Park

Big Hill Pond State Park lies in McNairy County, where the Tuscumbia River meets the Hatchie. Its pond is a borrow pit: in 1853 crews dug the dirt for a levee to carry a railroad across the bottoms, and the hole filled with water. Cypress now stand in and around its 35 acres. In the Civil War, Union troops dug in on a ridge above the railroad's trestle, and their earthen walls still run through the woods. A 70-foot fire tower looks out over the swamp, and the land became a state park in 1977.
