The coastal wetlands of Lafourche Parish are intricately mapped in this mid-century survey, centered on the planned drainage and agricultural efforts at Golden Meadow Farms. The landscape is dominated by a complex network of waterways, including Brusle Lake and Round Lake, which connect through various natural and engineered channels. The presence of the Yankee Canal and Raphael Canal underscores the 20th-century attempts to manage the low-lying marsh for development and farming.
