2012 Map of Juniper Springs

About this map

Juniper Prairie dominates this landscape, revealing a mosaic of wetlands and isolated islands within the Ocala National Forest region. The map documents a hydrologically significant area where major artesian sources like Juniper Springs, Fern Hammock Springs, and Sweetwater Springs feed a network of creeks. To the northeast, the shoreline of Lake George appears, intersected by Silver Glen Springs and Juniper Hunt Club Rd. This 2012 survey illustrates the balance between recreation and preservation, featuring the Juniper Springs Campground alongside remote landmarks like Pats Island and the Wildcat Lake Boat Ramp. For local historians and genealogists, the inclusion of Long Cem near the northern border provides a specific point of reference for early settlers in this unique terrain.
