About this map

The Great Dismal Swamp dominates this borderland between North Carolina's Camden and Currituck counties, defining a landscape shaped by water and human engineering. An intricate network of drainage channels, including the Guinea Mill Run Canal, Lateral A Canal, and Run Swamp Canal, crisscrosses the low-lying terrain to manage the natural hydrology of the region. This system of canals and creeks, such as Sawyers Cr and Roland Cr, reflects the long history of attempting to tame and utilize the vast wetlands for agriculture and transport.

In the southwestern portion of the sheet, the community presence is anchored by the Cedar Branch Baptist Church and its adjacent Cem. Rural aviation is represented by the NC61 Airport, while a cluster of residential roads like Puddin Ridge Rd and Ranchland Dr shows the modern expansion of rural living along the swamp's northern edge. The map provides a detailed view of how contemporary infrastructure integrates with the formidable environment of the Black Swamp.
