While I have not been to the area of the park since the storm I will tell you what I have heard on the radio about that area. Bayou Segnette state park is in Westwego La.

The very eastern side of La. and western and central Ms. is where the most damage was done because of storm serge. I think they said the storm surge (wall of water) was 25 to 30 ft high.
