About this map

Hunter and Lula anchor this landscape in western De Soto Parish during the early 21st century, a region defined by its timbered creek bottoms and active energy production. The land is drained by a complex network of waterways including the winding Bull Bayou, Pen Bayou, and Cypress Bayou. These natural features are interspersed with evidence of the local carbon economy, notably the Spider Gas Field, Catuna Gas Field, and Lula Gas Field.

For those researching family history, several burial grounds are scattered throughout the quadrangle, such as Prude Cem, Ebenezer Cem, Barber Cem, and Pollard Cem. The Hunter Lookout Tower serves as a prominent landmark overlooking the intersection of local parish roads and timber tracks. The map records a transition in naming conventions and infrastructure, from named family routes like Blunt Mill Rd and Files Rd to the standardized designations of Parish Road 313.
