1972 Map of Ringgold
USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
Lake Bistineau dominates this landscape along the borders of Bossier, Webster, and Bienville Parishes, featuring a complex network of islands such as Snake Island and Peggys Island. The map documents the region's mid-century energy and infrastructure, specifically the Bistineau Gas Field and the Sibley Oil and Gas Field. To the east, the town of Ringgold serves as a local hub, while the Kansas City Southern railroad cuts through the southwestern corner near Ninock. The area is densely marked with family and community landmarks, including the Theus Cem, Gilmer Cem, and Wimberly Cem. From the Fish Hatchery near the lake's edge to the Hail Summit Lookout Tower, the sheet provides a detailed view of North Louisiana's rural economy, timber lands, and recreational spaces like Lake Bistineau State Park.
