2015 Map of Trees

About this map

Caddo Lake and its western reaches anchor this landscape along the border of Louisiana and Texas. The area is defined by the wetlands and bayous that feed the lake, including the winding James Bayou and Harold Cr. High ground is marked by settlements such as Vivian and Trees, while smaller communities like Gethsemane and Gray are situated near several family and community burial grounds, including Gray Cem and Burks-Hart Cem. This 2015 study shows the modern road network, including Trees City Rd and Bonham Landing Rd, which provides access to the water's edge. The proximity of Vivian Airport to the town center highlights the regional infrastructure supporting these lakeside and rural communities. Along the shore, Stacy Landing and Bonham Landing indicate the long-standing importance of water access for recreation or commerce in this borderland region.
