2018 Map of West of Pennsuco

About this map

The Everglades dominates this 2018 survey, providing a focused look at the vast freshwater wetlands as they appeared in the early 21st century. This specific quadrangle covers a segment of the river of grass where the administrative boundary between Broward Co and Miami-Dade Co divides the landscape. The map captures a largely untouched environment, notable for the absence of modern roads, structures, or industrial development that characterizes much of South Florida. One of the few named topographical features within this expanse is the area identified as The Pocket, illustrating the subtle variation in hydrography and vegetation patterns that define this ecosystem. For researchers and conservationists, this sheet serves as a record of wetland extent and jurisdictional lines within one of the country's most significant natural regions.
