2018 Map of Arkansaw

About this map

The Eau Galle River and its numerous tributaries, including Little Missouri Cr and Missouri Cr, carve a complex network of ridges and coulees across the boundary of Dunn and Pepin counties. The settlement of Eau Galle sits at the southern end of Lake Eau Galle, while the community of Arkansaw is positioned to the southwest near the Arkansaw Cr. The landscape is defined by its deep drainages and named high points such as Stringer Hill, Gap Hill, and The Hogback. Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial sites throughout this area, including Saint Henrys Cem and Clearview Cem near the river, and Arkansaw Memorial Cem further south. The map documents the intricate rural road system that connects these valleys, from the broad Dead Lake Prairie to the specialized terrain of Joe Gray Coulee and Big Coulee.
