2020 Map of Bayou Current

A dense concentration of historical burial grounds, such as Mount Pleasant Cem, New Light Cem, and Atchafalaya Cem, reflects the long-standing family and church histories of the area. These cemeteries often sit near significant access points like La 105 or along the edges of the West Atchafalaya Floodway. The transition from the alluvial banks at Cypress Point to the swampy interior of the basin highlights the delicate balance between habitation and the seasonal ebb of the river system.
