Little Cheniere Ridge and Pumpkin Ridge emerge as critical high ground within this 1930s coastal marshland landscape. The topography reflects a delicate balance of water and habitable land, where early settlements like Creole and Oak Grove are situated along the elevated ridges and the Creole Highway. This survey reveals the infrastructure of the era, including the Little Cheniere Drainage District No 2 and a network of canals designed to manage the wetlands.
