1950 Map of Long Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Hunting Quarters and the low-lying wetlands of Piney Island dominate this coastal survey, where the intricate hydrology of Carteret County is mapped in detail. The landscape is defined by a dense network of tidal guts and creeks, such as Sanborns Gut and Golden Creek, which intersect the expansive salt marshes and forested tracts of Smyrna and the Open Grounds. Navigation is central to the area's character, evidenced by the Old Canal, the Cedar Island Light, and the vital passage of the Thorofare connecting West Thorofare Bay to the Atlantic.
