1968 Map of Butte La Rose

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

The Atchafalaya Basin dominates this landscape, where the shifting waters of the Atchafalaya River and the Upper Grand River create a complex network of bayous and lakes. The settlement of Butte La Rose sits at a critical bend in the river, protected by an extensive Levee system that defines the boundary between the active river channel and the surrounding swamp. To the north, the small community of Atchafalaya and the locality of Pelba are positioned near the Whisky Bay Pilot Channel, illustrating the mid-20th-century efforts to manage water flow and navigation through the spillway.
