1974 Map of Horseshoe Head

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

The Florida State Miccosukee Indian Reservation occupies a central portion of this 1974 orthophotomap, showing the wet, intricate landscape of the Everglades before modern expansion. This unique topographic record uses aerial photography to reveal the dense pattern of sawgrass ridges and sloughs that define the Everglades Wildlife Management Area Conservation Area No 3A. A prominent feature is Horseshoe Head, a distinct hammock or island of higher ground that stands out against the saturated terrain. Human engineering is visible through the straight lines of Levee 28 and the adjacent Canal, which border the Indefinite Boundary of the reservation. The map also records several Airboat Trails cutting through the vegetation, marking the essential transportation routes in an area where water is impounded periodically.
