2012 Map of Hedges

About this map

Nassau River dominates this coastal landscape, winding through a complex network of marshy islands and tidal creeks. The water-bound geography includes Halfmoon Island, Pearson Island, and Burton Island, separated by channels like Lofton Cr and Edwards Cr. This 2012 survey illustrates the residential expansion radiating from the Hedges and Yulee Heights area in the north, while smaller coastal settlements like Nassauville and O'Neil sit near the riverbanks. Aviation is a notable presence in the region, with both Nassau Airport and the Flying-A-Ranch Airport situated among the timberlands and subdivisions. Local history is anchored by several burial sites, such as Bowles Cem and Ferreira Cem, alongside navigation landmarks like Lofton Point and the Tisonia Lookout Tower. The drainage patterns of small tributaries like Grandaddy Br and Mill Br suggest the low-lying, swampy nature of the terrain between the developed corridors.
