About this map

The Mississippi River dominates this 1970 landscape, winding through a complex borderland where Mississippi, Arkansas, and Louisiana converge. The terrain is defined by the shifting hydrology of the river, featuring large oxbow remnants like Lake Lee and Silver Lake, alongside active chutes such as Whiskey Chute and Cornfield Chute. These watercourses highlight a geography of seasonal change and engineering, marked by a prominent Levee system designed to manage the floodplain.
