1969 Map of Rigolets

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

English Lookout and Pearlington sit at the northern edge of this coastal landscape, where the Pearl River system breaks into a complex network of bayous and marshes. The 1969 survey captures the critical transition between the freshwater Fritchie Marsh and the saltwater expanse of Lake Borgne, a divide marked by the historic Louisville and Nashville Railroad and the Intracoastal Waterway. This area is defined by its strategic navigational position, evidenced by the numerous navigational aids such as the W. Rigolets Lt 1 and various range lights that guide vessels through The Rigolets pass.
