About this map

Little River meanders through the heart of the landscape, defining the boundary between Grant and La Salle Parishes as it flows toward Thompson Ferry. The area is characterized by a mix of established timberlands within the Kisatchie National Forest and industrial activity, evidenced by numerous Oil Wells and Gravel Pits scattered near Breezy Hill. The settlement pattern follows the Missouri Pacific and Louisiana Meridian rail lines, linking towns such as Selma, Antonia, and Pollock.

Genealogists and local historians will find a dense network of country churches and family-named cemeteries, including Ebenezer Ch and the Hawthorne Cem near Zenoria. Landmarks like the Bay Spring Lookout Tower and Camp Grant Walker indicate the region's importance for forest management and youth recreation, while the presence of White Sulphur Springs points to the area's long-standing connection to local mineral waters.
