If I remember correctly..... When the water is a little high.....You can drive by boat from I-10 going north from Henderson Swamp area and get up to US 190.

All the water on the west side of the Atchafalaya basin starts flowing "backwards" from the main river about 8 or 9 miles south of Butte La Rose.
