About this map

The Archbold Biological Station anchors the landscape of central Highlands County in the early 1950s, highlighting a significant transition from the sandy ridges of the Lake Wales Ridge to the eastern wetlands. The Atlantic Coast Line railroad runs north-south, providing a backbone for small settlements like Childs and Hicoria, while Childs Station serves as a critical transport node near the southern tip of Lake Placid.
