1982 Map of St. Joseph Peninsula

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

St Joseph Peninsula stretches across this 1982 orthophotomap, forming a protective barrier between the Gulf of Mexico and the calm waters of St Joseph Bay. This unique study combines aerial photography with bathymetric data, offering a detailed look at the underwater topography and the shifting sands of the Florida Panhandle coastline. Significant portions of the landscape are dedicated to conservation, including the Saint Joseph Peninsula State Park at the northern tip and the neighboring Saint Vincent NWR across the channel. The map highlights the dynamic nature of this environment, specifically noting an area subject to frequent change along the bay-side shoreline. Inland, the narrow strip of land is punctuated by natural features like Pig Bayou, while a lone reference point, Joseph 1959, provides a fixed marker for surveyors and historians tracking the evolution of this delicate coastal spit.
