About this map

Salt Springs serves as the focal point of this northern Florida landscape, situated where the Salt Springs Run begins its winding course toward the Lake George basin. This 1994 photoinspection, based on 1960s imagery, details the intersection of waterways and protected lands within the Ocala National Forest. To the east, the St Johns River flows past Hog Island and Drayton Island, the latter defined by its distinct points like Kinsley Pt.

The southern portion of the map is dominated by the expanse of Hopkins Prairie, a significant wetland feature that contrasts with the wooded uplands. Local history and infrastructure are noted through the presence of a Cem near the river, a Lookout Tower, and a Radio Tower overlooking Little Lake Kerr. This survey effectively documents the boundary lines where Marion, Putnam, Volusia, and Lake counties converge along the aquatic margins of the St Johns system.
