1950 Map of Breton Islands

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Breton Island serves as a critical crescent of land in the Gulf of Mexico, functioning as the Breton National Wildlife Refuge at the time of this 1950 survey. The island is defined by its low-lying marshes and sand dunes, which sit just above the mean sea level and face the open sea. Navigational markers like the Breton Island Light and Breton Island Daybeacon indicate the island's importance for maritime traffic navigating the Breton Sound.
