2010 Map of Roper South

About this map

The settlement of Roper serves as the gateway to this coastal plain landscape, where the industry of S Lees Saw Mills once processed the local timber. The terrain is defined by an extensive network of drainage features designed to manage the low-lying wetlands, including Lewis Canal, Main Canal, and Canal B. These man-made waterways cut across the landscape toward the expanse of Phelps Lake in the southeast corner, reflecting a long history of land reclamation and agricultural development.
