The winding waters of Deer Creek and Steele Bayou define this landscape in the Mississippi Delta, where the relationship between the alluvial terrain and modern agriculture is clearly documented. The small settlement of Cary serves as a central hub, flanked by the smaller community of Egremont to the north and Issaquena to the south. This 1988 provisional edition highlights the conversion of the landscape, noting several large Fish Farm operations characterized by structured rectangular ponds, a stark contrast to the irregular meandering of natural waterways like Newsom Bayou and Coon Bayou.
