1977 Map of Lake Drummond SE

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Great Dismal Swamp dominates this orthophotomap, showing the complex drainage systems of ditches and canals that have historically defined the Virginia and North Carolina borderlands. This 1970s survey captures the landscape during a transitional era of conservation, featuring the established Dismal Swamp State Park alongside massive hydrological works like the Intracoastal Waterway and the Lake Drummond Causeway. The dense green canopy is interrupted by linear scars such as the Old Railroad Grade and numerous numbered ditches, indicating the long history of timbering and attempts to tame the wetlands.
