1972 Map of Mahogany Hammock

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Mahogany Hammock stands as a distinct island of dense vegetation within the expansive wetlands of Everglades National Park. This 1972 orthophotomap provides a clear view of the hydrological and ecological patterns of the southern Florida landscape, where water levels were monitored at Gaging Station BM 2 and controlled via a local Pumping Station. The map illustrates the varied aquatic environments of the region, from the open waters of Pearl Bay to the secluded Paurotis Pond and Ninernile Pond. Human passage through this environment is marked by an Airboat Trail cutting through the sawgrass, while the boundary between Monroe and Dade counties bisects the western reaches. This survey captures a moment in the managed wilderness, documenting the essential landmarks used by rangers and researchers alike.
