About this map

Deville Cem and the low-lying terrain of Big Island define the northwestern corner of this landscape where Rapides, LaSalle, and Avoyelles parishes meet. The area is a complex network of waterways, characterized by the winding path of Big Saline Bayou and the expansive waters near Big Point. The southern portion of the quadrangle transitions into more defined agricultural or managed parcels, yet it remains anchored by the alluvial history of the Old Red River. Distinctive elevated features such as Counterfeit Ridge and Gum Ridge provide a glimpse into the natural levee formations that historically dictated settlement and land use in this riverine environment. The map captures a high level of detail in the shifting channels of Jumping Bayou and Saline Bayou, illustrating the fluid nature of the Central Louisiana wetlands.
