About this map

Malheureux Pt marks the northernmost tip of this marshland landscape where the waters of Lake Borgne and the Mississippi Sound converge. Compiled from aerial photographs taken by the Air Corps, this survey captures the intricate hydrology of St. Bernard Parish before modern coastal changes altered the shoreline. The region is defined by a dense network of tidal channels and lagoons, including the Lakes of Bayou Marron and the winding course of Bayou La Fee.
