About this map

Lacassine National Wildlife Refuge dominates the upper-left quadrant of this coastal Louisiana landscape, where the Mermentau River and Bayou Lacassine meet the expansive waters of Grand Lake. The terrain is a complex network of wetlands and hydraulic engineering, defined by the Intracoastal Waterway cutting through Maple Marsh and several man-made channels like Willow Cutoff and Long Cutoff. This 1980 orthophotomap provides a clear view of the industrial footprint in the marsh, highlighting the Lakeside Oil and Gas Field and Grand Lake Oil and Gas Field with their associated sludge pits and pipelines. Prominent land features such as Cypress Ridge, Flat Ridge, and Latania Hill rise above the surrounding water bodies, including Latania Lake and Lake Misere, illustrating the delicate balance of high ground and open water in Cameron Parish.
