1972 Map of West Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Everglades National Park dominates this early 1970s orthophotomap, showing the intricate boundary where the Florida mainland dissolves into Florida Bay. This specific survey, which combines aerial imagery with topographic data, reveals a complex labyrinth of mangrove shorelines and interior brackish waters. The map highlights the transition from larger inland bodies like West Lake and Cuthbert Lake to the tidal influence of Garfield Bight and Snake Bight.
