1970 Map of South Of Holley

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Santa Rosa Island stretches across this narrow coastal landscape, separating the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico from the sheltered reaches of Santa Rosa Sound. Surveyed in 1970 and updated with 1976 aerial photography, this map documents the barrier island's natural features before significant modern development, emphasizing its extensive Sand Dunes and shifting Tidal Flat areas. The boundary between Santa Rosa and Escambia counties runs through the sound, marking a jurisdictional divide in this maritime environment. This map is primarily an aquatic and topographic study, capturing the exact shoreline and bathymetric depths of the period. It provides a specific record of the island's morphology at a time when the landscape was defined more by its coastal processes than by permanent human structures.
