1997 Map of Browns Inlet

About this map

Camp Lejeune Military Reservation dominates the coastal landscape of this late-twentieth-century survey, where the terrestrial environment is defined by dynamic maritime processes. The map documents the intricate network of tidal passages including Shacklefoot Channel, Banks Channel, and Freeman Creek that separate the mainland from the barrier islands. Significant shifting topography is noted along the coast, with Shifting Sand Dunes reaching elevations up to 15 feet near Browns Inlet.
