1973 Map of Everglades 4 NW

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Everglades Wildlife Management Area dominates this early 1970s orthophotomap, showing the intricate hydrology of Conservation Area No 3A where water is impounded periodically. The landscape is defined by the straight cut of the Miami Canal and its associated benchmarks like BM 15, which contrast with the organic, shifting patterns of the wetlands. A specialized network of transit is visible through numerous Airboat Trails and distinctive paths such as Weasel Trail and Misery Trail, reflecting the unique challenges of traversing the marsh. Along the southern edge, the Everglades Parkway (Toll Road) provides a modern corridor through the swamp, accompanied by infrastructure like a Gaging Sta, a Boat Ramp, and a Pipeline. This map offers a photographic record of the region's managed water levels and specialized transport routes before later restoration efforts.
