2024 Map of Cochrans Pass

About this map

Lake Okeechobee dominates this 2024 survey, offering a specialized look at the intricate aquatic and marshland boundaries where five Florida counties intersect. The map focuses on the western interior of the lake, particularly the transitional waters of Moonshine Bay and the navigational significance of Cochrans Pass. These features, along with Observation Shoal, indicate the complex shallow-water geography and seasonal marsh environments that define the Everglades' northern reaches. Unlike more terrestrial maps, this sheet emphasizes the convergence of administrative lines from Glades, Okeechobee, Martin, Palm Beach, and Hendry counties within the open water, highlighting the lake's importance as a shared regional resource and jurisdictional hub.
