USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
Paul J Rainey Wildlife Sanctuary and the State Wildlife Refuge dominate this coastal landscape in Vermilion Parish, where the transition from marsh to open water is mediated by an intricate network of natural bayous and industrial canals. This 1970s orthophotomap provides a hybrid perspective of the terrain, revealing the extensive dredging for the Freshwater Bayou Canal and the Buck Point Canal that support the region's energy sector. The aerial detail exposes the East Buck Point Gas Field and numerous offshore platforms and drill holes scattered throughout Vermilion Bay.
