Kisatchie National Forest dominates the landscape of Natchitoches and Sabine Parishes in the mid-1950s, revealing a terrain shaped by both conservation and military activity. The southern portion of the sheet transitions into the Fort Polk Military Reservation, featuring the Peason Ridge Artillary Range. This intersection of land uses provides a unique view of the region before further modern development, where family history is preserved in numerous burial grounds such as the Old Kisatchie Cemetery, New Kisatchie Cemetery, and the Billy Dowden Cemetery.
