1983 Map of White Lake

About this map

White Lake dominates this coastal landscape in the early 1980s, serving as a focal point for the complex intersection of Louisiana's marshlands and commercial waterways. This map details a region defined by its cheniers—coastal ridges such as Grand Chenier Ridge and Pecan Island Ridge—which provided the high ground necessary for settlements like Grand Chenier and Pecan Island amidst the wetlands. The transition from agricultural prairie near Kaplan and Abbeville to the brackish marshes of the Rockefeller State Wildlife Refuge and Game Preserve is clearly visible.
