About this map

Lake Raccourci and Timbalier Bay dominate this coastal landscape of southern Louisiana, where land and water constantly shift across the marshes of Lafourche Parish. The map reveals an active Oil Field with numerous Gas Wells and an Oil Well dotting the open waters and islands. The human presence is sparse but distinct, marked by Jacko Camp and the notable Ruins found on the Philo Brice Islands.
