2021 Map of Fort Union

About this map

The Suwannee River and Alapaha River converge in this northern Florida landscape, defining the boundary between Hamilton and Suwannee Counties. The area remains largely rural and water-dominated, characterized by numerous sinkhole features such as Eleven Ponds and Cypress Pond. Local aviation history is represented by the Pittman Oaks Airport and the Florida Sheriffs Boys Ranch Airport, located near the southern reaches of the river bends. For those tracing local roots, the map identifies small community centers like Adams and Fort Union, along with family-interest sites including New Hope Cem and West Lake Cem. Modern conservation and recreation are evident through the path of the Florida National Scenic Trl, which winds along the river bluffs, while the surrounding terrain is a network of numbered county roads and trails that reveal the late 20th-century development of this interior riverine corridor.
