USGS Topo · Published 1984About this map
Alturas serves as the primary hub in this central Florida landscape, positioned along the Seaboard Air Line railway during the mid-1950s. The region is defined by a dense concentration of freshwater bodies, ranging from the expansive Lake Buffum to smaller named basins like Surveyors Lake, Polecat Lake, and Gadau Lake. These lakes are connected by a network of drainage systems, including the Peace Creek Drainage Canal and numerous branches like Boggy Branch and Rocky Branch.
