About this map

Bayou Black winds through the low-lying wetlands of southern Louisiana, serving as a primary corridor for settlement and industry in this 1960s survey. The landscape is defined by the convergence of natural waterways like Tiger Bayou and Chacahoula Bayou with an extensive network of man-made infrastructure, including the Shell Canal and Drainage Canal. Human activity is concentrated along the ridges and levees, where the Southern Pacific railroad connects the communities of Gibson, Donner, and Chacahoula.
