1971 Map of Lake Hicpochee

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Lake Hicpochee dominates the eastern landscape of this South Florida region, where the Glades Co Hendry Co boundary line bisects a terrain of wetlands and managed waterways. In the early 1970s, the Okeechobee Waterway and Caloosahatchee Canal represent the vital hydraulic infrastructure of the Everglades, while the small settlement at Citrus Center stands as a primary point of human activity. The map reveals the character of the Florida interior through features like Beautiful Hammock and Woodyard Hammock, distinctive rises in elevation that support hardwood growth amidst the marsh. Of particular interest to local historians is the Indian Mound located south of the main highway, alongside several remote Landing Strip locations and the Seaboard Coast Line railroad cutting across the northern sections.
