2022 Map of Honey Island

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

The Green Swamp dominates this landscape, defining a network of wetland systems and isolated higher ground in southern North Carolina. The small settlement of Prosper sits at the northern edge, while Honey Island and the Bear Pen Islands emerge as distinct landforms within the saturated surroundings. This map highlights the unique terrain of the Atlantic coastal plain, where vast grassy openings like Crane Savanna, Big Savanna, and the Ready Branch Opening break up the forested swamplands. These features, along with names like Riegel Ridge and Rattlesnake Ridge, indicate the importance of subtle elevation changes for habitation and transit in this region. Private aviation is represented by the Bear Pen Airport, while the boundary between Columbus Co and Brunswick Co cuts through the northern portion of the sheet. The road network, including Shackletown Rd and Jerry Clemis Rd, traces the edges of these hydrologic systems, providing access to the more stable ridges.
