The Mississippi River corridor dominates this landscape, serving as the fluid border between Wabasha Co, Minnesota, and Buffalo Co, Wisconsin. The river's intricate network of backwaters includes the winding Wiggle Waggle Slough, Buffalo Slough, and Indian Slough, alongside major tributaries like the Zumbro River and Buffalo River. This 2022 survey documents the topography of the river valley, from the low-lying Second Finger Lake to the significant elevation of Twelve Mile Bluff overlooking the city of Alma. On the Wisconsin side, the Buffalo County Courthouse stands as a central landmark in Alma, while the Minnesota side features the settlements of Wabasha and Kellogg. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Mill Creek Cem and trace the proximity of family lands to historical landmarks like Teepeeota Point and the small community of West Newton near Murphys Cut.
