The Louisiana State Penitentiary dominates the alluvial landscape at the bend of the Mississippi River in this 2012 survey. Organized around multiple outposts like Camp A, Camp B, and Camp H, the prison grounds occupy the flat, bayou-threaded terrain north of Tunica Bend. The map illustrates the site's unique geography, bounded by the river to the south and the rising Tunica Hills to the east, which hem in Lake Killarney and the Angola Airstrip.
