1960 Map of Horn Island East

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Horn Island and the eastern reaches of the Horn Island National Wildlife Refuge dominate this coastal survey. The map illustrates the shifting barrier island landscape as it appeared in 1960, showing the thin ribbon of sand and marsh between the Mississippi Sound to the north and the open Gulf of Mexico to the south. This environment is defined by its maritime hydrography rather than terrestrial settlements, with detailed soundings and depth curves marking the seafloor.
