About this map

The Mississippi River floodplain in Tensas Parish is defined by a dense network of oxbow lakes, bayous, and historic landholdings. Large-scale agriculture is centered on sites like Thistle Ridge Plantation, Mound Plantation, and Gibson Plantation, while the low-lying terrain is carved by Choctaw Bayou and Buckhorn Bayou. The map reveals the intricate water system of the delta, from the sweeping curve of Lake Bruin to smaller water bodies like Jackson Lake and Duck Lake.
