2012 Map of Lake Eugenie

About this map

Lakes of Bayou Marron and the intricate marshlands of Saint Bernard Parish define this coastal landscape, where the land and water exist in a state of constant transition. The map captures a detailed view of the Louisiana delta shortly after the first decade of the millennium, showing the labyrinthine network of waterways including Bayou Marron and the wide expanse of Bobs Lakes. This environment is characterized by thin fingers of land and isolated terrain features like Wild Goose Island and Cat Fish Point, which serve as critical landmarks for navigation in a region dominated by tidal flow. To the south, the historical path of Bayou-la-Loutre winds through the wetlands, reflecting the ancient distributary patterns that have shaped the parish's ecology and coastal heritage. The absence of roads or permanent structures underscores the tidal nature of this territory, where local geography is named for its wildlife and maritime utility, as seen in Redfish Bayou and Pirate Point.
