1945 Map of Bradwell Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Bradwell Bay dominates this mid-1940s landscape, a dense swampy interior within the larger Apalachicola National Forest. The map, produced through the joint efforts of the War Department Corps of Engineers and the Geological Survey, captures the primitive hydrological network of Wakulla County during the war years. The Sopchoppy River meanders through the northern and eastern sections of the quadrangle, joined by smaller tributaries like Monkey Creek. This survey highlights a wilderness area before significant modern drainage or development, focusing on the natural topography and the sparse forest road network that served the region's timber and conservation interests. It provides a foundational record of the Florida panhandle's inland wetlands during a period of transition for the National Forest system.
