2024 Map of West of Horseshoe Head

About this map

Big Cypress National Preserve dominates this subtropical landscape along the boundary of Collier and Broward Counties. The sheet highlights a vast wetland environment where The Everglades transition through a network of remote backcountry routes. Navigation through this inundated terrain is limited to primitive paths like the Raccoon Point Cdu Trl and North Raccoon Point Trl, which wind through the preserve's southern sections. This modern survey illustrates the preservation of a sensitive ecosystem, largely devoid of permanent settlements or modern road infrastructure, favoring instead the preservation of the natural hydrography and public lands including the winding Lost Dog 1 Trl.
