1990 Map of Kennedy Creek

About this map

The Apalachicola National Forest dominates this landscape, where the confluence of the Apalachicola River and the Chipola River creates a complex network of wetlands and riverine features. The presence of Kennedy Creek Fish Camp, White Oak Landing, and Cotton Landing highlights a local economy and recreational culture deeply tied to these waterways. Navigational points such as the Inland Waterway and the Cutoff Island demonstrate the area's importance for river transit. Moving inland from the banks, the terrain is defined by numerous sloughs and bays, including Alligator Slough and the evocatively named Styx River. Small-scale features like a Cem and Sandpit offer specific touchpoints for local history and land use, while Battle Bend marks a significant curve in the river's path south toward the gulf.
