1967 Map of Apalachicola
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
The Apalachicola River serves as the central artery for this coastal region, meeting the sea at the historic town of Apalachicola. By the late 1960s, the landscape reflects a mix of maritime industry and conservation, with the Apalachicola Northern railroad connecting timber and fishing hubs like Port St Joe and Carrabelle. Strategic landmarks like the Cape St George Lighthouse and Fort Gadsden ground the map in the region's long navigational and military history, while the Marine Laboratory near St Teresa Beach marks the area's growing scientific interest. The expansive Tates Hell Swamp and Bear Swamp dominate the interior, illustrating the formidable wetland geography that constrained inland development. Coastal settlements such as Mexico Beach and Lanark Station appear alongside significant federal lands, including Tyndall Air Force Base and the St Marks National Wildlife Refuge.
