2021 Map of Bruce

About this map

The Choctawhatchee River winds through a complex network of wetlands and islands in this recent survey of the Florida panhandle. This riparian corridor is defined by features like Cowford Island and East River Island, flanked by the expansive Dismal Swamp and Titi Swamp. Small communities like Bruce and Ebro anchor the higher ground, while the settlement of Pine Log sits near the southern edge of the quadrangle. Cultural and conservation efforts are evident in the sprawling Nokuse Plantation Conservation Easement and the Pine Log State Forest Trail, reflecting a landscape dedicated to ecological preservation. Genealogists and local historians can find named routes such as Gum Lock Cemetary Rd and landmarks like the Olan Ferguson Bridge, which provide specific points of reference for tracing family connections to the river-dependent economies of Washington and Walton Counties.
