The Mississippi River forms a dominant boundary along the western edge of this landscape, carving a complex network of islands and backwaters such as Big Soup Bone Island, Little Soup Bone Island, and Railroad Island. This modern survey reveals a highly specialized river environment preserved within the Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge, where seasonal changes dictate the visibility of features like Santa Fe Beach and Savanna Bay.
