About this map

The border of Allen Parish and Evangeline Parish defines this mid-1980s landscape, where water management and timber activity shape the terrain. The small community of Bond sits near the upper left, marked by a local Cem and a network of named gullies and creeks. The landscape is heavily structured by a series of linear paths labeled Firebreak, suggesting the importance of forestry or land management in this portion of Louisiana.

Water moves through a complex system of natural and man-made channels, including Bayou Nezpique and the West Fork. Infrastructure for agricultural or industrial use is evident through features like the Well Pump Canal, an Abandoned Canal, and several Siphon points. The presence of numerous Well sites across the flats, alongside Grand Bayou Louis, indicates a working landscape focused on resource extraction or specialized irrigation.
