About this map

Osceola National Forest dominates this landscape in northern Columbia County, Florida, revealing a complex network of wetlands and pine flatwoods. The map detail shows the rural character of the area in the mid-1990s, anchored by the community of Greenfield and the eponymous Deep Creek. This survey records a geography defined by its bays and heads, such as Otter Bay, Impassable Bay, and Sawgrass Head.

Transport history is preserved through the marking of an Old Railroad Grade and numerous four-wheel-drive trails winding through the timberland. Local landmarks for researchers include a Lookout Tower, a rural Cemetery, and several secluded water bodies like Church Pond and Turtle Bay. The map captures the hydrological transition where creeks like Falling Creek and Robinson Branch drain the expansive Florida wetlands into more defined channels.
