About this map

The expansive wetlands of Lake Bistineau dominate this 1941 landscape, reflecting a transitional period for North Louisiana’s hydrology. The map identifies a Proposed Dam Site and records the Shore Meander of Old Lake Bistineau, offering a precise record of how the water levels shifted before modern engineering was fully established. To the southwest, the Red River cuts through the border between Bossier and Caddo Parishes, while the Louisiana and Arkansas Railway provides a transit corridor through the bottomlands.
