1949 Map of Whiting

About this map

Whiting Bay serves as the dominant coastal feature for this portion of Washington County, its intricate shoreline defined by places like Gravelly Point and Leighton Point. Inland, the settlement of Whiting sits at a narrow point of the Orange River, where the geography transitions from the tidal waters of the bay to a series of freshwater bodies including Little Lake and Eastern Lake. The landscape is largely characterized by the expansive Edmunds National Wildlife Refuge, which encompasses significant marshland and meadow terrain such as Moosehorn Meadow.
