About this map

The Kissimmee River meanders through a sprawling wetland landscape on the boundary of Highlands and Okeechobee counties. This 1950s era survey by the U.S. Corps of Engineers shows the river before major modernization efforts, characterized by natural features like Hole in the Wall and the swampy reaches of Starvation Slough. To the southwest, the northern edge of Lake Istokpoga is visible, connected by the Istokpoga Canal and Istokpoga Creek, which navigate the surrounding marshes near Spoil Bank.
