1952 Map of Lake Weohyakapka SE

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Lake Kissimmee and the surrounding marshlands of central Florida define this 1952 topographic study, showing a landscape shaped by water and early transportation infrastructure. The map details the transition from open water to seasonal wetlands, specifically identifying the prominent landmass of Brahma Island and the northern reach of Tiger Lake. Evidence of former industrial activity remains visible through the Old Railroad Grade, which cuts diagonally across the southern terrain, providing a clear path through the hammocks and sloughs that dominate the area. The boundary between Osceola and Polk counties runs through the waters of the lake, while drainage patterns like Buttermilk Slough illustrate the natural hydrology of the region before modern water management systems significantly altered the flow toward the Everglades.
