About this map

The Kissimmee River meanders across this landscape during the early 1950s, defining the boundary between Okeechobee and Highlands Counties. This era shows the river in its natural, highly braided state before major channelization, winding past hardwood stands like Bluff Hammock and Hickory Hammock. In the southwestern corner, the northern edge of Lake Istokpoga connects to the Istokpoga Canal, which, alongside Spillway 38, points toward the emerging water management infrastructure of the period.
