St. Gabriel and the surrounding river lands of the Mississippi River valley are shown here at a point of modern transition. This landscape, where the borders of Iberville Parish, East Baton Rouge Parish, and Ascension Parish meet, is defined by the complex hydrology of the lowlands. Extensive wetlands like Bluff Swamp and Spanish Lake are fed by a network of slow-moving waterways including Bayou Manchac, Bayou Paul, and Bayou Fountain.
