2020 Map of Hurricane Branch

About this map

Kisatchie National Forest dominates this landscape on the border of Vernon and Beauregard Parishes. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the central Bundick Cr and its many tributaries such as Hurricane Br, Tighteye Cr, and Rocky Br. Military history and land management are visible through the proximity of Fort Polk and the extensive grid of parish roads that navigate the timberlands. Local history is anchored at the Johnson Cem, located near the junction of Bailey Rd and Ida Bailey Rd. The map illustrates the specialized road system used for forest management, featuring named routes like Providence Rd and Walter James Rd. These roads connect isolated drainage basins and timber plots, while larger thoroughfares like Ikes Rd and Parish Rd 758 provide the primary east-west transit across the southern reaches of the quadrangle.
