1979 Map of Big Constance Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Rockefeller State Wildlife Refuge and Game Preserve dominates this coastal landscape where the Louisiana marsh meets the Gulf of Mexico. This 1970s orthophotomap combines aerial photography with topographic data to document a fluid environment of brackish lakes and meandering waterways. The intricate hydrology of Little Constance Lake and the larger Big Constance Lake is shaped by natural features like Constance Bayou and Dyson Bayou, alongside industrial modifications such as the Pipeline Canal in the northwest. The transition between the open waters of the Gulf and the interior wetlands of Cameron Parish is captured with precision, showing the delicate barrier between the sea and the preserve's managed habitats.
