About this map

Everglades Wildlife Management Area Conservation Area No 3 dominates this 1970s orthophotomap, revealing the complex hydrology of the western Everglades in Broward Co. The landscape is a mosaic of wet prairie and sawgrass, where water impounded periodically in this area is managed through a network of infrastructure including the Mud Canal and a prominent Pipeline. Human movement through this environment is strictly specialized, evidenced by the intricate system of Airboat Trail, Weasel Trail, and the Airboat North Trail that cut through the vegetation. Along the southern edge, the Toll Road provides the only high-speed corridor, punctuated by various benchmarks like BM 24 and BM 20. This survey offers a precise record of water management and backcountry access before modern development further altered the flow and character of the northern glades.
