Everglades National Park encompasses the northeastern corner of this coastal expanse, where the boundary of this protected wilderness meets the open waters. The chart is dominated by the transition between Florida Bay and the broader Gulf of Mexico, illustrating the submerged geography of the Florida Keys' backcountry. Oxfoot Bank represents a significant underwater feature in the northern portion of the sheet, indicating the shallow, shifting shoals characteristic of this maritime environment. This recent survey captures the precise modern boundaries of the national park in an area defined entirely by its aquatic and wetland composition, providing a clear record of the jurisdictional limits and natural seafloor features in Monroe County.
