1963 Map of Port Hudson

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Port Hudson sits prominently on the eastern bluffs of the Mississippi River, marking a historically significant bend where the river meets the mouth of Thompson Creek. This landscape is defined by the complex shifting of the river channel, evidenced by the large oxbow of False River and the low-lying reaches of Fancy Point Chute. The topography transitions sharply from the alluvial plains of Pointe Coupee Parish in the west to the dissected uplands of East Feliciana Parish and East Baton Rouge Parish in the east.
