1968 Map of Rigolets

About this map

Fort Pike State Monument (Ruins) stands at the western gate of Rigolets, guarding the historic deep-water passage between Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Borgne. This intricate coastal landscape, revised in the late 1970s, reveals the complex network of bayous and islands that define the St. Tammany and Orleans Parish boundary. On the northern shore, Apple Pie Ridge provides a rare strip of higher ground where White Kitchen and the Ridge Memorial Ch are situated among the surrounding Fritchie Marsh.
