1953 Map of Dog Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The aquatic landscape of Terrebonne Parish dominates this mid-century survey, defined by a complex network of bayous, passes, and open lakes. At its heart lies the Dog Lake Oil and Gas Field, indicating the industrial reach of energy extraction into the coastal marshlands during the early 1950s. The map illustrates a world where water is the primary corridor, from the wide expanse of Dog Lake to the intricate channels of Quitman Bayou and Grand Caillou Bayou.
