1994 Map of Lake Eloi

About this map

Half Moon Lake Oil Field and the Eloi Bay Oil Field dominate this coastal Louisiana landscape, where the extraction industry interfaces with a complex marshland environment. In this 1990s survey, the terrain is characterized by a labyrinth of lagoons, passes, and bays where no point rises more than five feet above sea level. This is a purely maritime and industrial geography, defined by the Lake Athanasio Gas Field and several offshore platforms. Navigational channels like China Pass, Joe Shiman Pass, and Treasure Pass cut through the marsh, linking larger water bodies such as Lake Eloi and Christmas Camp Lake. The map serves as a vital record of the fragile coastline and the Bayou Petre drainage system before decades of erosion further altered these tidal reaches.
