2015 Map of North of Fiftymile Bend

About this map

Big Cypress National Preserve encompasses the vast majority of this landscape, which is defined by its deep wilderness character and lack of conventional road networks. The western portion of the sheet is traversed by the Florida National Scenic Trail, providing a rare point of human access through the protected wetlands. This 2015 edition documents the Public Land Survey System grid across Collier County, including townships T51S through T53S. Located in the southeastern corner, Threemile Island stands out as a named landform amidst the surrounding terrain. The map's sparse labels emphasize the region's preservation as a primitive natural area, where traditional landmarks are replaced by environmental boundaries and hiking routes.
