About this map

Elkton and the surrounding agricultural landscape of Saint Johns County are defined by a network of drainage and historic transport corridors in this contemporary survey. The settlement of Vermont Heights sits at the intersection of local residential development and the natural expanse of Cowan Swamp, while the southern reaches of the map are anchored by the community of Armstrong. These areas are linked by the Palatka To St Augustine Corridor Trail, a significant recreational path following a legacy transportation route across the low-lying terrain.

Water management is central to the local geography, visible in the winding courses of McCullough Creek and Moccasin Br. The map also captures smaller locales like Squirrel Hill and the evocative Molasses Junction, situated near Trestle Bay Swamp. The transition from rural homesteads to modern residential clusters like Coquina Crossings reflects the ongoing evolution of this Florida interior region.
