1982 Map of Elaine

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Elaine serves as the primary hub in this Mississippi River delta landscape, where the floodplain is defined by intricate waterways like Govan Slough and Yellow Bank Bayou. The area's agricultural and social fabric is revealed through small clusters such as Hoop Spur, Modoc, and Dixie, alongside numerous rural spiritual centers including the Church of God and Morning Star Ch. This survey illustrates the constant tension between the land and the Mississippi River, visible in the prominent curve of Swan Lake and the shifting channels around Robson Towhead.
