About this map

Big Saline Bayou meanders through a landscape defined by complex hydrology and shifting parish boundaries in this 2015 survey. The map details the convergence of Rapides, LaSalle, and Avoyelles Parishes, illustrating how water bodies like Camels Slough and Raccoon Bayou dictate the geography of the region. Notable topographic features such as Counterfeit Ridge and Gum Ridge provide subtle elevation among the numerous waterways. Local history is anchored by the Deville Cem in the northwest, while family-named routes such as Raymond Price Rd and Steve's Lake Rd reflect the enduring local connection to the land. The southern reaches are marked by the presence of the Old Red River, emphasizing the historical importance of fluvial movement in shaping this corner of Louisiana.
