About this map

Fort Adams stands on the eastern bluffs overlooking a complex hydrologic landscape where the Mississippi River, Old River, and Red River systems converge. This mid-1960s perspective captures the massive engineering of the Old River Control Structure and its Outflow Channel, designed to manage the distribution of water between the Mississippi and the Atchafalaya basins. The map illustrates a region dominated by the shifting hydrology of the river, with extensive wetlands such as the Dismal Swamp and Devils Swamp surrounding numerous oxbow lakes like Lake Mary and Grassy Lake.
