1967 Map of Lake Cataouatche West

About this map

The expansive wetlands of St. Charles Parish are defined by a complex network of waterways, including Lake Cataouatche and Lake Salvador. In the mid-1960s, the industrial footprint of the region was heavily shaped by resource extraction, anchored by the Boutte Oil and Gas Field. A series of pipelines and canals, such as the Bois Piquant Canal and Cousin Canal, cut through the marshland, illustrating the logistical efforts required to move timber and energy products from the interior.
