1954 Map of East Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Suwannee River currents dominate this coastal landscape where the fresh water of the interior meets the saltwater of the Gulf of Mexico. The map details a complex deltaic environment defined by numerous distributaries and tidal creeks, including Gopher River, Hog Island East Pass, and the curious Dead Boy Cr. At the river's edge, Fletcher Landing serves as a lone point of human settlement amidst the marshy terrain. The survey reflects the intricate hydrography of the mid-1950s, tracing a network of islands like Turkey Island and Hog Island that shift alongside the Suwannee Sound. Navigation is guided by several Daybeacons positioned near the oyster-rich shallows of Lone Cabbage Reef, indicating the importance of the maritime economy for this stretch of the Florida coastline.
