About this map

The Atchafalaya Floodway dominates this mid-century view of the Louisiana swamp, where a complex network of waterways defines the landscape. The Grand River and Bayou Maringouin snake through the northern sections, passing the Grand River Sch and a Gaging Station located near the protective levee. This area is characterized by shifting sediment and seasonal water levels, with prominent features like Upper Flat and Middle Flat indicating the basin's hydrology.
