2018 Map of Oyster Bayou
USGS Topo · Published 2018About this map
Point Au Fer Island dominates this coastal survey, where the marshlands of Terrebonne Parish meet the Gulf of Mexico. The landscape is defined by the intricate transition from open water to estuarine wetlands, characterized by a network of waterways including Oyster Bayou and Youvia Bayou. To the north, the protected waters of Fourleague Bay and Bay Castagnier contrast with the open sea. This 2018 survey reveals the dynamic shoreline and hydrological patterns of southern Louisiana's coast, where subtle features like Little Mosquito Bayou provide the only navigable breaks in the land. The presence of section lines like t21s r12e indicates the formal land partitioning over this largely undeveloped environment.
