2015 Map of Moss Lake

About this map

Calcasieu Lake dominates this coastal landscape south of Lake Charles, where the intricate waterways of the Calcasieu Ship Channel and the Choupique Cutoff Intracoastal Waterway define the local economy and geography. The map reveals a transition between the northern industrial areas of Burton Landing and the rural marshland to the south. Local heritage is preserved in several small burial grounds including Dutch Cove Cem, Benoit Cem, and Pujol Cem. This 2015 data captures the region's complex water management system, from the Old Canal to the Black Bayou Bridge, highlighting the navigation routes essential to Calcasieu Parish and Cameron Parish. Settlement patterns are concentrated along arterial roads like Big Lake Rd and in the communities of Moss Lake and Hackberry.
