2020 Map of Gorum
USGS Topo · Published 2020About this map
Kisatchie National Forest dominates this Central Louisiana landscape, where the settlements of Gorum and Sampusand are anchored by family and community history. The terrain is defined by a series of ridges and named elevations including Chopin Camp Ridge, Negro Foot Hill, and Sunk Hill. A complex network of watercourses, such as Bayou Pierre, Little Bayou Pierre, and Bayou Cypre, threads through the timberlands, influencing the placement of local routes like Mora-Gorum Rd and Emmanuel Rd. Genealogists will find significant local value in the mapped locations of Gorum Cem, Botton Cem, and Emanuel Cem. The presence of the Longleaf Vista Trail and Turpentine Hill Trail reflects the area's legacy of forestry and outdoor recreation within the pine-covered hills of Natchitoches Parish and Rapides Parish.
