2015 Map of Lacamp

About this map

Simpson and Lacamp anchor this Vernon Parish landscape, where the upper reaches of the Calcasieu River wind through a dense network of timbered creek bottoms and local family roads. The area's rural character is defined by its small community centers and numerous burial grounds, including Pine Island Cem, Mayo Cem, and Scott Cem. Significant local history is embedded in the road names, such as Hicks School Rd and Hicks Fire Tower Rd, which suggest the former locations of essential civic and forestry infrastructure near Hicks Crossing. The topography is dominated by the drainage patterns of N Fork Mill Cr and Evans Br, illustrating the intricate hydrology of the central Louisiana uplands before they give way to the larger river systems to the south.
