About this map

Osceola National Forest encompasses this expansive wetland terrain along the border of Columbia and Baker counties. The landscape is defined by its massive, interconnected swamp systems, including Pinhook Swamp to the north and the aptly named Impassable Bay in the central-western portion. These watery reaches are punctuated by named islands such as Noah Island, Clay Hole Island, and Negro Camp Island, which provided higher ground for timber operations and camps.
