These are proposed waypoints, taken from the LouisianaMap program. The Yellow path shows the route from launch to the end of Bay Begnard. I especially want to explore that cut leading from Bay Begnard into Bayou Loin. I have never been been through there and was unaware of it until I saw it on a satelite image (didn't have those back in the good ol' days). I have been in Bayou loin, but came in from the Henderson direction in someone's power boat. That bayou name is pronounced "lwen", by the way, and it translates as "far away". Seems a good place for me to visit.
Looking at the map, it occurred to me that one could follow my orange trace, wind through that maze of bayous, portage a couple of times, enter the Atchafalaya near I-10, portage into Bayou Larose, and return to the put- in, making a nice looped trip. I'll have to think about camping options; That's probably a full two- day trip.
