About this map

Pilottown stands as a vital outpost for river pilots navigating the final reaches of the Mississippi Delta, positioned where the Mississippi River splits into its major distributaries. This maritime community is situated at the Head of Passes, a critical junction for international shipping. The surrounding landscape is a complex network of marshes and waterways including Jaquines Island and Red Pass. The presence of the West Bay Oil and Gas Field with its numerous platforms and pipelines highlights the region's industrial importance, while the Delta National Wildlife Refuge and Pass a Loutre State Wildlife Management Area preserve the natural habitat. Small water bodies like Mary Bowers Pond and Locust Pond are scattered throughout the wetlands, alongside specific landmarks such as the Lookout Tower Wildlife Headquarters.
