1954 Map of Steinhatchee SW

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

The Jena Wildlife Management Area dominates this section of the Florida coast, where the terrestrial landscape dissolves into the Gulf of Mexico through a series of tidal creeks and marshes. Surveyed in the early 1950s, the map illustrates the intricate hydrological network of Rocky Creek, Sink Creek, and Buck Creek as they drain into the shallow coastal waters. This specific stretch of Dixie County shoreline is defined by its irregularity, punctuated by landmarks such as Hardy Point and Tater Island. To the south, the Pepperfish Keys and Big Grassy Island mark the transition into open water near Halfway Point. The topography, originally recorded via planetable surveys, highlights the low-lying nature of the Big Bend region, where subtle elevation changes dictate the boundary between wetlands and more stable ground.
