2024 Map of Chekika Island
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
The Everglades landscape dominates this 2024 survey, highlighting the delicate hydrography of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Wilderness. The area is characterized by the broad reach of the Shark River Slough, a critical drainage artery that flows through the southern wetlands. The map shows a distinct pattern of hammocks—elevated islands of vegetation—named for local flora and fauna such as Poinciana Hammock, Gumbo Limbo Hammock, and Vulture Hammock. These features, along with Chekika Island, serve as the primary landmarks in an otherwise fluid terrain.
