1972 Map of Pa Hay Okee Lookout Tower

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Shark Valley Slough dominates this 1972 orthophotomap, showing the intricate hydrological patterns of the southern Florida wetlands just as modern conservation efforts were taking shape. The aerial perspective highlights the distinct vegetative streaks of the Everglades National Park, where elevated tree islands like Papaya Hammock provide relief from the surrounding sawgrass marsh. Human interaction with this landscape is marked by the Airboat Trail and vital water management infrastructure such as a Gaging Sta. The Pa-Hay-Okee Lookout Tower stands as a primary landmark for visitors and researchers, positioned near the transition to Rock Reef Pass. This sheet captures the transition between Monroe and Dade counties, providing a clear record of the area's natural drainage and limited transit routes through the heart of the Glades.
