About this map

The confluence of the Navidad River and Lavaca River dominates this landscape in Jackson County, where the rivers wind through a complex system of bayous and wetlands. Near the river junction, the terrain is marked by distinctive features such as Buzzard Roost Bend, Old Red Bluff, and Palmetto Bend. These waterways historically shaped the development of the small communities of Lolita and Vanderbilt, which are connected by FM 616.

Industrial activity is evidenced by roads like Exxon Oil RD and Mobile Oil RD south of Vanderbilt, while the local history of the area is preserved at the Lolita Cem. To the south, the environment transitions into more expansive water bodies, including Redfish Lake, Swan Lake, and the Venado Lakes. The map also details the low-lying Menefee Flat and the surrounding basin of Menefee Bayou, illustrating the intricate drainage patterns of this coastal prairie region.
