1954 Map of Kisatchie

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Kisatchie National Forest dominates this mid-century landscape, where the dense timberlands of Natchitoches and Vernon Parishes meet the expanding military footprint of the Fort Polk Military Reservation. The map captures a transition in land use as the northern reaches of the Artillery Range and Peason Ridge overlap with older rural settlements. The drainage patterns of the Calcasieu River and Kisatchie Bayou define the topography, supporting isolated communities like Kurthwood, Simpson, and Kisatchie.
