2024 Map of Lake Hicpochee

About this map

The Caloosahatchee Canal and Okeechobee Waterway dominate this Florida interior landscape, cutting through the marshy terrain that characterizes the area surrounding Lake Hicpochee. The map illustrates a region defined by agricultural development and water management, with extensive grid-patterned irrigation and drainage infrastructure supporting local farms. The boundary between Glades and Hendry counties bisects the southern half of the quadrangle, where the settlement of Pioneer sits near Hendry Isles Blvd. Significant indigenous and natural history is noted through the presence of the Seminole Indian Mound and named woodland stands like Beautiful Hammock and Woodyard Hammock. These features, along with localized landmarks like Donald Peeples Pond and Storey, provide a detailed record of land ownership and traditional use in the Florida Glades.
