1965 Map of Christmas Point

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Follets Island and the thin barrier of San Luis Island separate the open Gulf of Mexico from a complex network of shallow Texas bays and marshy sloughs. This 1965 survey, updated with 1974 photogrammetric revisions, documents the intricate coastal geography near San Luis Pass before significant modern development. The Intracoastal Waterway cuts a straight path through the landscape, bypassing the winding natural course of Bastrop Bayou and creating a distinct navigational corridor through Bastrop Bay and Christmas Bay.
