1972 Map of Weavers Station

About this map

The Tamiami Trail bisects this Florida landscape, serving as the primary corridor through the complex wetlands of Everglades National Park. To the north, the terrain transitions between the expansive Fakahatchee Strand and open grasslands like Dan House Prairie and Four Stake Prairie. The map's orthophotomap format vividly captures the intricate drainage patterns of the region, where a network of water bodies including the Fakahatchee River, East River, and Ferguson River flow toward the coast. The southern portion of the sheet reveals the tidal complexities of Fakahatchee Bay and Ferguson Bay, punctuated by Daniels Point. Along the main roadway, the Roadside Park and the intersection with Grove Road indicate the few established points of human infrastructure in this predominantly watery wilderness.
