1960 Map of Horn Island West

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Horn Island stretches across this 1960 coastal study, serving as a critical barrier between the Mississippi Sound and the open Gulf of Mexico. The island's geography is defined by the Horn Island National Wildlife Refuge, which preserves the narrow, sandy landform and its internal marshy depressions. Noteworthy aquatic features include the shallow Middle Ground to the north and the curved inlet of The Horseshoe near the eastern edge of this quadrangle.
