About this map

Profit Island dominates the center of this 1950s survey, carved out by a sharp loop of the Mississippi River and the Profit Island Chute. Along the western banks, a string of river landings including Arbroth Landing, Rose Hill Landing, and Devalls Landing illustrate the enduring importance of the waterway to the local economy. The landscape is a complex network of bayous and drainage features, such as Cane Bayou and Stumpy Bayou, managed by an extensive system of levees and spoil banks.
