2018 Map of Manlin Hammock

About this map

Manlin Hammock and the surrounding marshy lowlands of Taylor County meet the Gulf of Mexico in this detailed survey of the Florida coastline. The landscape is defined by a network of drainage sloughs and creeks, including Steer Pen Slough and Smokehouse Cr, which carve through the dense wetlands. The interior is navigated primarily by long, straight tracks such as Rattlesnake Grade and Mossey Hammock Grade, reflecting the area's history of timber harvesting and land management. Near the mouth of the Fenholloway River, localized high points like Thomas Mill Hammock and Thomas Mill Island provide rare footing above the tide line. The presence of Old Club House Rd and Thomas Mill Run suggests a long-standing coastal economy centered on the river's resources. This 2018 survey provides a clear view of the tidewater hydrology and the traditional access routes used to navigate these coastal hammocks.
