Hammock). It was at the end of a road southward off of the Tamiami Trail (the east central part). Kramer Hammock was the name of it in the 1960's, but today it is owned by the Federal Government (NPS). It was about 50 acres (he thinks) and was a campground and picnic area. He thinks that the Shark Valley Lookout Tower area of today in the Everglades could be the same area that was formerly known as Kramer Hammock, but is not sure. We looked at the Shark Valley Lookout Tower, FL 7.5 minute map (1972 edition) and found the Shark Valley Lookout Tower Hammock. Does anyone know if the Shark Valley Lookout Tower area was formerly known as Kramer Hammock? Or does anyone have any old Florida maps that show Kramer Hammock? He remembers seeing Kramer Hammock on an old Shell road map. Thanks in advance. Joan Zeeb-Roman Joan R.
