1972 Map of Lake Ingraham West

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Cape Sable defines the southwestern edge of the Florida peninsula in this 1970s orthophotomap, where the mangrove-heavy coastline of Everglades National Park meets the open Gulf of Mexico. This aerial-based survey provides an exceptionally clear view of the shifting shoreline and internal tidal systems, particularly around the large coastal lagoon of Lake Ingraham. Unlike standard topographic maps, this edition uses photographic imagery to document the intricate network of tidal guts and vegetation patterns, such as those surrounding Sable Creek. Notable landmarks include the prominent points of Northwest Cape and Middle Cape, joined by the straight cut of the Middle Cape Canal. The map also delineates an Indefinite Boundary offshore, illustrating the complex jurisdictional nature of these coastal waters during the early 1970s.
