2021 Map of Tenmile Swamp

About this map

Tenmile Swamp dominates this landscape along the border of Calhoun and Gulf counties in the Florida panhandle. This low-lying drainage system is defined by a complex network of wetlands and creek systems, including the W Fork and E Fork, which feed into the broader Wetappo Swamp. The terrain is punctuated by slightly higher elevations like Two Pen Ridge, providing dry ground for a sparse network of forest roads and small family landmarks. Local history is anchored at the Wetappo Cem and Kemp Cem, located near the intersection of Kemp Cemetery Rd and Pippin Rd. Further south, Wetappo Cr and Stone Mill Creek meander through the pines, reflecting a region deeply tied to its hydrological patterns and timber-access routes like Longleaf road.
