1965 Map of Chesser Island

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge dominates this mid-1960s phototopographic study, revealing the intricate water and land patterns of the southeastern Georgia wetlands. The map provides an overhead perspective of the Suwannee Canal as it cuts through the dense vegetation of Chesser Prairie and Mizell Prairie. Unlike traditional topographic maps, this edition uses a green-and-blue photomosaic base to distinguish between open water like Cooter Lake and the various "prairies," which are actually marshy areas of aquatic plants and grasses.
