2024 Map of Hog Bayou

About this map

Grand Chenier Ridge stands as the primary topographical high ground in this coastal section of Cameron Parish, where land-use patterns are dictated by the surrounding marshes. This area is defined by a network of waterways including Hog Bayou, Club Canal, and Pren Branch, which drain into the low-lying wetlands south of the ridge. The map illustrates a complex coastal hydrology where features like Crab Lake, Beach Pond, and First Lake dot the landscape before meeting the Gulf of Mexico. This survey reflects the modern shoreline and drainage configuration, showing how local transport and activity remain concentrated along the ridge while the southern reaches remain largely dominated by open water and tidal prongs such as Beach Prong.
