2020 Map of Greens Bayou

About this map

Lone Pine sits at the northeastern edge of a vast wetland landscape dominated by the complex hydrology of Cameron Parish. The terrain is defined by a intricate system of waterways, where natural bayous and human-engineered canals intersect. The Black Bayou and its tributaries, including the Right Prong Black Bayou and the East Fork of Right Prong Black Bayou, drain the northern sections of the map, while Greens Bayou and Greens Lake anchor the central wetlands. Small rises in elevation are marked by features such as Pines Ridge and the Blue Islands, which provide a subtle contrast to the surrounding marsh. The presence of the Starks North Canal and Starks Central Canal highlights the systematic drainage and water management efforts required to navigate and utilize this low-lying coastal environment near the Gulf of Mexico.
