About this map

The low-lying wetlands of southern Louisiana define this 1985 survey, where the boundary between Jefferson Davis Parish and Cameron Parish meets the sprawling Lacassine National Wildlife Refuge. The landscape is a complex network of water management and industrial presence, characterized by the Thornwell Drainage Canal and the tracks of the Southwestern RR. Small settlements like Thornwell and Niblett are situated among a grid of flumes and siphons, reflecting the intensive agricultural and hydraulic engineering of the region.
