1944 Map of Sugar Hill
USGS Topo · Published 1945About this map
Sugar Hill rises above the narrow barrier landscape of St George Island in this coastal survey conducted during the final years of World War II. The map focuses on a slender segment of the Florida coast where the St George Sound meets the open Gulf of Mexico. The terrain is defined by shifting Sand and prominent Dunes, illustrating the natural state of the island before modern development transformed the region. A small pocket of Marsh and various unnamed tidal inlets highlight the fragile environment of the Apalachicola Bay area. This document was produced for the War Department by the Geological Survey, reflecting the strategic importance of coastal mapping during the 1940s.
