About this map

Bangor and Rockland anchor this 2010 topographic survey of the driftless region, where the La Crosse River and Little La Crosse River wind through a landscape defined by deep coulees. The map meticulously documents the area's spiritual and settlement history, marking the Welsh Calvanistic Cemetery and Welsh Congregational Cemetery in Jenkins Valley, alongside Saint Marys Cemetery and Fairview Cemetery near the village centers.

The rugged local geography is clearly articulated through numerous named landforms, including Norwegian Coulee, Raffelson Coulee, and Tamarack Coulee, which speak to the historic settlement patterns of the region's early residents. Modern recreation is represented by the State Bike Trl following the former rail corridor between the towns, while the small settlement of Burns and the nearby Burns Dam reflect the earlier industrial and agricultural utility of the local waterways.
