1972 Map of Powell Point

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

The Saline State Wildlife Management Area dominates this landscape where the boundaries of LaSalle, Rapides, Avoyelles, and Catahoula parishes converge. This 1972 survey reveals a complex hydrological network defined by the Saline Lake and West Saline Lake basins, where numerous bayous like Taylor Bayou and Muddy Bayou weave through low-lying terrain. The extractive economy of the early 1970s is evident in the West Saline Lake Oil Field and the Saline Lake Oil Field, marked by dense clusters of Oil Wells across the northern sections.
