Bayou Dorcheat meanders through this landscape in Webster and Claiborne Parishes, defining a terrain of wetlands and rising ground. The extraction legacy of the region is evident at the Cotton Valley Oil and Gas Field, while the small settlement of Leton sits at the junction of HWY 160 and local routes. Genealogists can locate several burial grounds, including Saint Luke Cem near Bull Hill and Hodge Cem further west. The map shows an intricate drainage network where Flat Lick Bayou and Cañon Cr flow through the southern reach. The naming of roads like Evergreen School Rd and Fire Tower Rd reflects the rural infrastructure and former community centers that once dotted this corner of Louisiana.
