1954 Map of East Pass

About this map

The Suwannee River carves a winding path toward the Gulf of Mexico, defining the boundary between Dixie and Levy counties in the mid-1950s. This coastal landscape is dominated by a complex network of tidal creeks and marshes, including the intricate branching of East Pass, Pitt Creek, and McCormick Creek. Human activity is concentrated at river access points such as Fletcher Landing, while large tracts of land are preserved within the Perpetual Wildlife Management Area and the Lower Suwannee National Wildlife Refuge.
