1970 Map of Loxahatchee SE

About this map

Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge dominates this orthophotomap, showing the intricate textured surface of the northern Everglades as it appeared in 1970. This area, also designated as Conservation Area No 1, is characterized by an expanse of sawgrass and sloughs, punctuated by elongated tree islands known as teardrop hammocks. These natural patterns are starkly interrupted by the rigid engineering of the L-40 Canal, which forms a sharp boundary between the protected wetlands and the emerging agricultural or developed lands to the east.
