1982 Map of Fountain

About this map

Fountain and the northern edge of Youngstown anchor this 1980s orthophotomap of the Florida Panhandle, where the landscape is defined by the dense, branching drainage basins of the Bear Creek system. The Atlanta and Saint Andrews Bay railroad cuts a straight north-south line through the terrain, paralleling the main roadway and serving as a primary corridor for this rural timber and agricultural region. Higher ground is found at Mitchell Hill, while the lower reaches are dominated by complex watercourses like Juniper Creek, Pine Oak Creek, and Little Moccasin Cr. This map provides a clear view of the intersection of industrial infrastructure and natural hydrology, featuring a prominent Lookout Tower, multiple Cemeteries, and a Pipeline that traverses the wooded areas between Washington and Bay Counties.
