About this map

Bayou Pointe au Chien serves as the primary artery of settlement and movement through this section of south Louisiana in the mid-1960s. The landscape is a complex network of natural waterways and industrial alterations, characterized by the extensive Bully Camp Oil and Gas Field and the southern Bayou Jean Lacroix Oil and Gas Field. Numerous drill holes and canals like the Cutoff Canal and St Louis Canal reveal the footprint of the petroleum industry across the marsh. Along the central bayou ridge, a thin ribbon of community life is visible, anchored by Live Oak Ch, St Peters Ch, and the Lower Pointe au Chien Sch. This era captures the delicate balance between the area's traditional coastal ecology and the expanding energy infrastructure centered around Lake Bully Camp and the winding Bayou Salle.
