2015 Map of Point

About this map

Moselys Bluff overlooks the northern reaches of Bayou D'Arbonne Lake, anchoring a landscape in Union Parish defined by intricate creek systems and small settlements. The area transitions from the open waters and sloughs of the bayou into a network of hills and bottomlands drained by Horse Pen Creek, Tiger Creek, and Briny Bridge Creek. This 2015 survey reveals a pattern of dispersed rural living, with family-named cemeteries such as Ruggs Bluff Cem and Acree Cem scattered along the winding road network. The presence of the Union Parish Airport in the north-central section contrasts with the traditional settlement clusters of Point and Terrills. Navigational features like Francis Cr Lake and Lake Drain Slough highlight the complex hydrology that has historically shaped the timber and agricultural movement through this part of North Louisiana.
