2015 Map of Fitler

About this map

The Mississippi River carves a dramatic path through this section of the Mississippi Delta, defining the fluid border between Issaquena County and East Carroll Parish. The landscape is characterized by a complex network of oxbow lakes and secondary waterways, such as Fitler Lake and Steele Bayou, which reveal the historical movement of the river channel. Small settlements and landmarks like Fitler, New Fitler, and Magna Vista are positioned among these hydrological features, connected by rural routes such as Fitler Rd. In the southern reaches, the Albemarle Crevasse and the expansive Goose Lake Flats illustrate the alluvial nature of the terrain. The presence of Lookout Point Airport near Point Lookout suggests the continued importance of aerial navigation in managing this river-dependent geography.
