About this map

The Saline State Wildlife Management Area anchors the southern portion of this 1982 survey, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Catahoula Parish bottomlands. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of water bodies, including Larto Lake, Maknockanut Lake, and Honey Brake Lake, all connected by a web of bayous such as Big Bayou and Cypress Bayou. A significant engineering feature, the Diversion Canal, cuts across the terrain to manage water flow between these systems. Industrial and agricultural activity is evident through the Big Bayou Oil Field and the Louisiana Delta Plantation Landing Strip, which serve as markers of the local economy during the early 1980s. The presence of Foster Ridge provides a rare point of elevation in a region otherwise dominated by wetlands and drainage features like Honey Brake Bayou and Larto Slough.
