About this map

Fisheating Creek and its many tributaries, including Bootheel Creek and Platt Branch, define the hydrologic character of this interior Florida landscape. The terrain transitions along the Lake Wales Ridge, where the complex network of sloughs like Gannet Slough, Joe Slough, and John Henry Slough suggests a seasonal wetland environment typical of the Glades region. The map reveals a rural settlement pattern marked by small residential pockets such as Melissa Manor and specialized land use like the Last Chance Ranch Airport. The boundary between Highlands and Glades counties bisects the southern half of the sheet, where the drainage patterns of Clay Slough underscore the low-lying nature of the southern plains. A dense grid of local routes, including Graham Dairy Rd and Old State Hwy 8, provides access through the various ranch lands and groves.
