About this map

The town of Grand Cane sits at the center of this early 1970s survey, surrounded by a landscape defined by both timbered creek bottoms and active energy extraction. The local topography is drained by a network of waterways including Cook Creek, Grand Cane Bayou, and Little Bayou Na Bonchasse, with the southern reaches transitioning into the broad Southerland Bottom. This era shows the extensive development of the regional energy industry, marked by the North Grand Cane Oil and Gas Field and the Spider Gas Field, with numerous pipelines and drill holes dotting the countryside.
