About this map

The boundary between Calcasieu Parish and Cameron Parish divides this low-lying landscape, where early 20th-century water management and transportation networks intersect. The Intracoastal Waterway cuts through the marshy terrain of the southern portion of the quadrangle, which is dominated by the meandering course of Black Bayou. These wetlands transition northward into organized sections of farmland and prairie, served by a grid of early roads like State Highway No 389.
