About this map

The sugar-driven landscape of southern Florida is clearly defined in this modern survey, where the organized grid of Clewiston meets the industrial and agricultural infrastructure of the Everglades. The map captures the interface between established residential areas like Harlem and the critical transportation hubs of Sugar Junction and Hooker Point. To the north, the massive engineering of the Rim Canal separates the town from the waters of Lake Okeechobee and Coot Bay, illustrating the area's ongoing relationship with water management.

Beyond the urban core, the landscape transitions into a vast network of canals and irrigation systems, including the L-1 Canal. Local history is visible in place names like Keela and South Clewiston, while the Florida National Scenic Trail traces a path through the region. A notable topographic exception in this low-lying terrain is Maple Mound, a distinctive feature in the western reaches of the quadrangle.
