1979 Map of St Catherines Sound

About this map

St Catherines Sound serves as the central focal point of this coastal orthophotomap, where the Medway River and Bear River meet the Atlantic tide. The landscape is a complex network of salt marshes and tidal channels, separating major landmasses like Colonels Island and Ossabaw Island from the mainland. The imagery reveals the intricate drainage patterns of smaller tidewater features such as Vandyke Creek and Ashley Creek, providing a clear record of the shoreline's composition in the late 1970s.
