1994 Map of Juniper Springs

About this map

Juniper Springs and Fern Hammock Springs anchor this portion of the Ocala National Forest, where spring-fed waters emerge to form the headwaters of Juniper Creek. The landscape is defined by the high water tables of the Florida peninsula, featuring the broad expanse of Juniper Prairie and several large water bodies including Wildcat Lake and the western shore of Lake George. The interior is marked by the presence of the Ocala State Wildlife Management Area and the U S Naval Reservation, showing a region largely dedicated to conservation and government use rather than residential development. This 1994 photo-inspection of 1969 imagery captures the network of light-duty and unimproved roads that navigate between distinctive wetlands like Farles Prairie and Morman Branch.
