About this map

Calcasieu Lake dominates this coastal landscape, where the shifting boundaries of marsh and water define the region's character in the mid-1950s. The settlement of Cameron sits at the junction of Calcasieu Pass and the Gulf of Mexico, serving as a critical maritime hub with its U S Coast Guard Station and prominent Ship Channel. To the north, Hackberry stands as a primary inland community, featuring Hackberry High Sch and St Peter Ch amidst a network of industrial infrastructure, including the Rygade Canal and various oil and gas wells.
