About this map

Kisatchie National Forest covers much of the northwestern portion of this landscape, where the boundary between Webster Parish and Claiborne Parish snakes through a complex drainage system. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Black Lake Bayou and its numerous tributaries, including Butler Creek, Choctaw Creek, and Fancher Creek. A man-made Levee and several pipelines cross the land, indicating the industrial management of this wooded region.

Small settlements and community nodes are scattered throughout the quadrangle, notably Germantown, Holly Springs, and Langston. The presence of numerous cemeteries and local infrastructure like the substation near Minden provides essential data for genealogists and local historians. Economic activity in the area is further evidenced by several gravel pits, which are clustered in the southern sections near Sugar Creek Branch and Cooley Creek.
