About this map

Oak Creek Marsh and its surrounding wetlands dominate this 1950s landscape where the borders of Hardee, De Soto, and Highlands counties converge. The terrain is defined by a complex network of seasonal water and swampy lowlands, including the distinctive Long Point Marsh and the winding course of Oak Creek. The presence of a Levee and an associated Spoil Bank in the eastern section indicates early efforts at water management and land modification in this remote part of Florida. Evidence of human transit and land use is sparse, marked by the lonely Footman Trail and a solitary Windmill, suggesting a period when this region was primarily used for cattle ranching or drainage-dependent agriculture rather than dense settlement.
