About this map

The Tensas River meanders across this portion of Madison Parish, carving a complex network of oxbows and bayous through the Louisiana lowlands. In this 2015 U.S. Geological Survey representation, the landscape is defined by its hydrology, where seasonal water bodies like Wolf Lake and Little Bear Lake sit alongside established drainages such as Mothiglam Bayou and Johns Bayou. The intricate curving of the riverbanks and the presence of features like Horseshoe Lake illustrate the shifting nature of the deltaic terrain over time.

Rural infrastructure is primarily comprised of a few key arteries, notably Quebec Rd and Sharky Rd, which provide access to these remote reaches. These roads, along with Hunterbend Rd, connect scattered agricultural holdings and natural landmarks. The map also documents specific local markers such as Kelly Purkey, providing precise data for researchers interested in the modern topography and land use of the Waverly SE quadrangle.
