1998 Map of Lost Lake

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Lost Lake dominates this coastal Louisiana landscape, a central hub in a complex network of bayous and wetlands in Terrebonne Parish. The late twentieth-century environment is defined by its shifting aquatic borders, where Lost Lake Pass and Blue Hammock Bayou cut through low-lying marshes. Industrial activity is evident throughout the region, with numerous gas wells and a larger gas field near Fiddlers Lake, indicating the importance of energy extraction in the coastal marshes. Named features like Rice Island and The Narrows provide essential orientation in a territory where land and water frequently merge. To the south and east, large bodies of water such as Lake Mechant and Mudhole Bay signal the transition toward the open gulf, connected by vital arteries like Oyster Bayou and Buckskin Bayou.
