2025 Map of Lake Ingraham West

About this map

Everglades National Park covers the majority of this coastal reach, where the terrestrial landscape of Monroe County meets the open waters of the Gulf of America. The map documents a low-lying wilderness dominated by tidal systems and sawgrass plains, notably The Everglades and the expansive Raulerson Prairie. The shoreline is defined by the prominent hooks of Northwest Cape and Middle Cape, which form the southern edges of Cape Sable. Inland, hydrological features like Lake Ingraham and the meandering Little Sable Creek illustrate the complex transition between freshwater runoff and salt water. This modern survey reflects the preserved state of Florida's southwestern tip, showing a landscape defined by natural boundaries rather than human infrastructure or settlement.
