1971 Map of Fisheating Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Lake Okeechobee and its intricate shoreline dominate this orthophotomap, showing the complex water-management landscape of the early 1970s. The northwest reaches of the lake are defined by a network of man-made structures and natural waterways, including the Herbert Hoover Dyke and the Harney Pond Canal. The map provides a detailed view of the Brighton Indian Reservation where it meets the water's edge at Big Bear Beach, illustrating the boundary between managed land and the open marsh. Local settlements like Lakeport and Sportsman Village emphasize the area's importance for regional recreation and navigation. Farther out in the lake, features like the Monkey Box and Observation Shoal are critical landmarks for those navigating the waters near Fisheating Bay. This aerial-derived survey captures the transition from the marshy Moonshine Bay to the engineered Rim Canal.
