About this map

Pass A Loutre and its branching waterways define the deltaic landscape of Plaquemines Parish in this 1954 compilation, based on aerial photography from the mid-1930s. The map illustrates a complex network of active and inactive distributaries where the Mississippi River meets the Gulf of Mexico. Historical maritime infrastructure is evidenced by the Pass A Loutre L. H. (Discontinued), positioned near Lighthouse Bayou, marking a site once vital for navigation through these shifting silts.
