2012 Map of Tendal

About this map

The Tensas River carves a winding path through the low-lying Madison Parish landscape, defining the character of this rural agricultural region. Small settlements like Quebec and Tendal anchor the map near the central transport corridor, while the surrounding territory is intricately carved by seasonal waterways such as Island Chute, Bayou Despair, and Tensas Bayou. The presence of Eldorado Plantation Rd and Charles Brown Rd points to the area's deep-rooted agrarian history and family-held lands. Aviation interest is noted by the 4B Ranch Airport, positioned south of the main road. The drainage patterns of the Judd Bayou and Mothligam Bayou reveal the flat, alluvial nature of the Mississippi Delta country, where water management and road placement are dictate by the subtle shifts in elevation along the river bends.
