The low-lying wetlands of the Mississippi River delta dominate this landscape, where the border of Lafourche Parish and St. Charles Parish cuts through an intricate network of waterways. Water management and industrial access are central themes, evidenced by the Louisiana Cypress Lumber Canal and the presence of Texaco Rd cutting through the marsh. These man-made features overlay an ancient system of natural bayous and bays, including Bayou Cypriere Longue and Baie des Chactas.
