About this map

Loggy Bayou meanders through the alluvial landscape of Red River Parish, defining a region where the natural water systems and industrial extraction converge. This 2012 survey illustrates the dense network of energy production sites, including the Des Arc Oil Field and Toulon Bayou Gas Field, which are interspersed among small rural settlements and agricultural plots. The Red River carves a wide path through the western portion of the map, flanked by numerous secondary waterways such as Alligator Bayou and Coushatta Bayou.

Cultural landmarks are centered around established locales like East Point and Westdale, while more secluded sites like Saint Marks Cem and New Hope suggest the deeper history of the local community. The presence of numerous oxbows and named water bodies like Lake Ninock and Crichton Lake highlights the dynamic nature of the river valley, where water drainage and parish roads dictate the layout of modern settlement patterns and land use.
