About this map

The expansive waters of Lake June In Winter dominate this Highlands County landscape, illustrating a complex hydrologic network of smaller basins and connecting creeks. In the south, the community of Lake Placid serves as a primary hub, adjacent to the transportation infrastructure of the Placid Lakes Airport. The map documents a dense grid of residential development extending from the lakeshores, particularly surrounding Lake Carrie and Lake Francis.

Tracing northward, the terrain transitions into more rural territory, where the curiously named settlement of Hen Scratch sits near the western edge. This area is defined by its numerous named water bodies, including Red Water Lake and the various fingers of Fisheating Cr. The drainage patterns provided by Josephine Cr and Jones Gully reveal the natural flow of the Florida interior before it meets the highly organized street plans of the surrounding neighborhoods.
