The Calcasieu River winds through this portion of Vernon Parish, anchoring a landscape defined by small rural settlements and a significant military presence. In the southern reach of the map, the transition from civilian lands to the boundaries of Fort Polk is marked by features like Infantry Lake, Artillery Lake, and Armor Lake, reflecting the region's long-standing role in military training. The settlement of Simpson sits at the northern edge, while Walnut Hill, Mayo, and Hicks are scattered across the central and eastern sections, connected by a dense network of local roads such as North Rd and Mayo Rd.
