2021 Map of Lake Arbuckle NE

About this map

The MacDill Air Force Base Auxiliary Field occupies a prominent position in this landscape of central Florida, where the border of Polk and Highlands counties meets. The terrain is defined by an extensive wetland network, characterized by the expansive Blue Jordan Swamp and the slow-moving waters of Morgan Hole Cr. To the west, the eastern shoreline of Lake Arbuckle serves as a primary geographical anchor, with the Rim Canal and Arbuckle Creek providing critical drainage and navigation routes through the low-lying interior. This 2021 survey reveals a region where human infrastructure is largely confined to military utility and light recreational access, represented by the Arbuckle Creek Trail and Wainwright Way. The map provides a clear view of the Public Land Survey System township and range lines that still organize this relatively undeveloped portion of the state.
