2017 Map of Swifton East
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Village Cr and Willow Ditch carve a complex network of drainage across this low-lying stretch of eastern Jackson County, reflecting the deep-seated efforts to manage the wetlands of the Mississippi Alluvial Plain. The settlement of Swifton sits on the western edge of the quadrangle, while the smaller community of Denton Island is located near the southeastern corner along the Cache River. This 2017 survey illustrates the agricultural modernization of the region, where once-winding waterways have been straightened into channels like Deep Ditch and Maple Ditch to support the surrounding farmland.
