1967 Map of Lake Cataouatche West

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Lake Cataouatche and Lake Salvador dominate this coastal Louisiana landscape, where the tides and industrial extraction meet in the wetlands of St. Charles Parish. The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways including Bayou Couba, Bayou Cypriere Longue, and the Lanaux Canal, which served as vital corridors through the marsh. By the late 1960s, the region was heavily shaped by resource extraction, evidenced by the extensive Boutte Oil and Gas Field and numerous drill holes scattered across the wetlands.
