Bayou du Large meanders through the northwest corner of this coastal landscape, flanked by La 315 and Bayou Dularge Rd. The region is defined by a dense network of tidal waterways and marshlands, where significant channels like Bayou Grand Caillou and Bayou Sauveur drain toward Moncleuse Bay and Bay Long. The presence of Fohs Canal and numerous smaller distributaries like Little Lewis Bayou and Treasure Bayou illustrates the complex hydrologic character of Terrebonne Parish. Settlement is concentrated along the natural levees of the larger bayous, while the remainder of the area remains a labyrinth of water and wetland. This survey provides a precise look at the drainage patterns and access roads that support the local maritime and petroleum-adjacent industries in the early 21st century.
