2012 Map of Sicily Island

About this map

Sicily Island rises above the alluvial landscape of Catahoula Parish, defined by a complex network of waterways including Black Bayou, Bayou Louis, and the winding Goose Bayou. This 2012 survey captures a rural landscape where industry and heritage overlap, featuring the Sicily Island Oil and Gas Field alongside numerous family and community burial grounds such as Old Pine Hill Cem and Pilgrim Cem. The settlement of Norris Springs sits to the north, while Leland serves as a western waypoint near the Leland Lookout Tower. Transportation and commerce are reflected in the presence of the Peck Landing Strip and a web of local routes like Bayou Louie Rock Rd. The map also illustrates the watery geography of Duck Creek Island and the expansive Lovelace Lake, providing a clear record of the region's hydrography and small-town infrastructure at the start of the 2010s.
