2024 Map of Custard Apple Hammock

About this map

The Everglades landscape dominates this section of South Florida, where the natural water systems and tree islands remain the defining features. At the heart of the sheet lies Custard Apple Hammock, a distinct ecological feature providing elevation and variety within the sawgrass marsh environment. The broader flow of the Shark River Slough moves through the area, representing a critical artery for the regional hydrology. The map also delineates the jurisdictional boundary between Broward and Miami-Dade counties, showing how administrative lines intersect these large-scale natural formations. This survey reflects the region's preservation of wilderness character in a modern era of ecological mapping.
