1973 Map of Fiftymile Bend

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Dade-Collier Transition and Training Airport stands as a massive geometric clearing in the Florida Everglades, a striking contrast to the surrounding sawgrass and hammocks of the early 1970s. This orthophotomap, produced from 1971 aerial photography, captures the intersection of the Tamiami Trail and the Tamiami Canal as they cut southeast through the cypress and marl prairies. The landscape is dotted with small settlements and family-named landmarks like Fiftymile Bend, Paolita Station, and Pinecrest.
