1954 Map of Secotan

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Atlantic Coast Line tracks dominate the northern reaches of Taylor County, carving a straight diagonal path through a landscape defined by wetlands and dense timber. The small settlement of Secotan serves as a focal point along the rail corridor, supported by the Secotan Lookout Tower, which provided a critical vantage point for forest management during the mid-century. Drainage is defined by the winding course of the Econfina River in the northwest and Rocky Creek in the southeast, both of which traverse a topography marked by numerous small sinks and depressions. This 1950s survey captures the region's character as a working forest and transport artery, just as aerial photography began to refine the mapping of Florida’s intricate marshlands and timber stands.
