1969 Map of Yscloskey

About this map

Old Fort Beauregard Ruins stand as a historical marker along the edge of Lake Borgne, anchoring a landscape defined by the intersection of natural bayous and massive mid-century civil engineering. The dominant feature is the Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet, a deep-draft shipping channel cutting through the marshlands and flanked by extensive spoil areas. This industrial artery drastically altered the hydrology surrounding established fishing and trapping communities like Yscloskey, Alluvial City, and Shell Beach.
