2024 Map of Jacks Point Island

About this map

White Lake and its vast marshy surroundings dominate this coastal landscape in southern Louisiana, where land and water are inextricably linked. The terrain is defined by a network of maritime infrastructure, notably the Intracoastal Waterway and the Warren Canal, which carve paths through the wetlands to facilitate regional navigation. High ground is represented by a series of distinct islands, including Jacks Point Island, Pine Island, and Outside Island, many of which are accessed by local routes such as Pine Island Rd and Bull Island Rd. The presence of the Gang Pirogue Trail through the marsh highlights the traditional methods of traversing these shallow waters. These features illustrate the precarious balance of a deltaic environment where small settlements and camps rely on isolated ridges and managed waterways for survival and transport.
