The delta landscape of the Mobile River and Tensau River dominates this 2011 survey, revealing a complex network of waterways that define the northern reaches of Mobile Bay's watershed. The terrain is characterized by numerous river bends and high points along the banks, such as Twentyseven Mile Bluff and Twentyfour Mile Bend, which historically served as navigational markers for river traffic. Central to the map is the large water body known as The Basin, surrounded by intricate bayous including Squirrel Bayou and Duck Bayou.
