1956 Map of Telegraph Swamp

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Babcock Ranch anchors the northern reaches of this landscape where the boundaries of Charlotte and Lee counties meet. The area is defined by an extensive hydrological network, most notably the wide expanse of Telegraph Swamp and the waters of Currys Lake. These natural drainages are supplemented by man-made alterations like the Big Island Canal, which reflects mid-century efforts to manage the low-lying Florida terrain for ranching and agriculture.
