About this map

Lake Arbuckle and its surrounding wetlands define this landscape in the early 2010s, situated between the expansive waters of Reedy Lake to the northwest and a network of smaller lakes. The small settlement of Alpine sits in the southwest corner, marking a pocket of development amidst a region characterized by diverse water bodies like Lake Isabell, Lake David, and Lake Pythias. The landscape is etched with local history and industry, visible in the presence of the Rucks Dairy Airport and the tellingly named E Old Bombing Range Rd in the southern portion of the quadrangle.

A complex system of drainage and creeks, including Livingston Cr, Reedy Cr, and Grassy Creek, weaves between agricultural plots and nurseries such as that found on Ward's Nursery Rd. The road network is a mixture of established county routes like Co RD 627 N and numerous local tracks like Water Hole Rd and Cowpen Rd, reflecting the rural and agricultural character of this Florida interior before more intensive modern development reaches these lakefronts.
