About this map

Little Prairie Ridge and the Intracoastal Waterway define the northern limits of this coastal marshland, mapped as it appeared in the mid-1940s. The landscape is dominated by a complex network of wetlands and tidal channels, including Hackberry Bayou and Little Chene Bayou. A rare and fascinating glimpse into historic local transportation is revealed by the marking of the Pirogue Trail, which weaves through the central marsh, connecting isolated land masses like the Pumpkin Islands.
