About this map

Red River meanders define the northern boundary of this landscape, where the shifting waters of Old Red River and the Saline Cutoff illustrate the dynamic alluvial history of Avoyelles and Catahoula Parishes. To the south, the terrain transitions into a complex network of wetlands and backwaters, dominated by the Spring Bayou State Wildlife Management Area. Localized settlements like Ophelia and the descriptively named Cypriere a Oncle John sit amidst a labyrinth of bayous and lakes, including Lac Sainte Agnes and Lac Grand Bayou. The presence of St James Chapel and various landing strips like Moonshaven Landing Strip suggests a remote community reliant on both waterborne navigation and small-scale aviation. The intricate drainage patterns of Twisty Bayou and Bayou Cocodrie reflect a landscape shaped by seasonal flooding and the slow movement of water through the Louisiana lowlands.
