1970 Map of Warrens East

About this map

Warrens and the surrounding marshlands of Lincoln and Scott townships define this 1970 landscape, where the commercial cultivation of cranberries is the dominant agricultural feature. Numerous Cranberry Bogs are carved into the low-lying terrain near the East Fork Lemonweir River and Sawdust Marsh, showing the specialized hydrology of the region. The map captures a moment when industrial extraction and natural preservation coexist, with scattered Sandpits and a Sandpit appearing alongside the expansive State Wildlife Area and Jackson Co Monroe Co Wildlife Area Boundary. Rising above the wetlands are prominent elevations such as Hunters Peak, Miles Peak, and the Winkler Hills. Evidence of earlier settlement and transit persists through Bear Bluff Station, the Morman Cem, and a dedicated Landing Strip situated near Island in the eastern reaches.
