2015 Map of Lake La Graisse

About this map

Lake La Graisse and the surrounding marshlands of Terrebonne Parish are depicted here as they appeared in 2015. This coastal landscape is defined by the complex transition between interior bayous and the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Significant hydrological features include Seabreeze Pass and Bayou Jose, which facilitate the movement of water through the fragile wetland system. To the south, Terrebonne Bay dominates the lower half of the quadrangle, with the prominent landmark of Point Meshe extending into the water. This digital-era survey illustrates the delicate balance of the Louisiana coastline, documenting the proximity of Bay Lost Reef and Pass Barre to the fluctuating shoreline. The map provides a precise record of these landforms for environmental researchers and those tracking coastal change in the early 21st century.
