1 Florida Circumnavigational Saltwater Paddling Trail Data Book 1 Florida Circumnavigational Saltwater Paddling Trail Data Book To be used in conjunction with written guides and maps on Florida Office of Greenways and Trails (OGT) website (www.FloridaGreenwaysandTrails.com), and Google Earth maps and detailed campsite information on Florida Paddling Trails Association (FPTA) website (www.floridapaddlingtrails.com). Relevant pages of the Florida Atlas will come in handy for town stops. Note: Mileage will likely be longer in certain sections due to the need to paddle farther offshore at low tide. Estimated total mileage for the trail, including paddling to Key West and back, is around 1,515 miles. This total can be more or less depending on how many points of interest are visited or if a paddler skips campsites. Thru paddlers and FPTA volunteers contributed to this document. Feedback is welcome. Please contact Doug Alderson of OGT at [email protected].

Introduction From traditional fishing communities to wild stretches of shoreline, tidal creeks and rivers, this segment is one where paddlers can steep themselves in “Old Florida.” This is also the only segment where paddlers can follow two scenic rivers for a significant distance: the Crooked and Ochlockonee rivers. The Crooked River is the only area along the trail where paddlers have a good chance of spotting a Florida black bear. Several hundred black bears roam the Tate’s Hell/Apalachicola National Forest area, one of six major black bear havens in the state. Florida black bears are protected under Florida law. Keep food and garbage tightly packed and hanging in a bag from a tree branch at least ten feet off the ground. In paddling the Crooked River paddlers will enjoy a slice of the untrammeled 200,000- plus-acre Tate's Hell State Forest. This scenic route also features Ochlockonee River State Park where there is a full-service campground a short distance from the water. For camping reservations, visit Reserve America or call (800) 326-3521.

  • BISCAYNE NATIONAL PARK the Florida Keys Begin with Soldier Key in the Northern Section of the Park and Continue to the South and West
    CHAPTER TWO: BACKGROUND HISTORY GEOLOGY AND PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY OF BISCAYNE NATIONAL PARK The Florida Keys begin with Soldier Key in the northern section of the Park and continue to the south and west. The upper Florida Keys (from Soldier to Big Pine Key) are the remains of a shallow coral patch reef that thrived one hundred thousand or more years ago, during the Pleistocene epoch. The ocean level subsided during the following glacial period, exposing the coral to die in the air and sunlight. The coral was transformed into a stone often called coral rock, but more correctly termed Key Largo limestone. The other limestones of the Florida peninsula are related to the Key Largo; all are basically soft limestones, but with different bases. The nearby Miami oolitic limestone, for example, was formed by the precipitation of calcium carbonate from seawater into tiny oval particles (oolites),2 while farther north along the Florida east coast the coquina of the Anastasia formation was formed around the shells of Pleistocene sea creatures. When the first aboriginal peoples arrived in South Florida approximately 10,000 years ago, Biscayne Bay was a freshwater marsh or lake that extended from the rocky hills of the present- day keys to the ridge that forms the current Florida coast. The retreat of the glaciers brought about a gradual rise in global sea levels and resulted in the inundation of the basin by seawater some 4,000 years ago. Two thousand years later, the rising waters levelled off, leaving the Florida Keys, mainland, and Biscayne Bay with something similar to their current appearance.3 The keys change.
