2013 Map of Eau Claire West

About this map

The Chippewa River carves a winding path through this 2013 western section of Eau Claire, defining the landscape between the downtown area and the more rural stretches of Union and Truax. Notable landmarks like the Silver Mine Hill Ski Jump and the Gemini Drive-In reflect the region's recreational history, while the oxbow of Half Moon Lake 2.54 and its adjacent Half Moon Beach mark the transition from industrial riverfront to residential space. The terrain is punctuated by local high points such as Mount Simon and Mount Washington, which offer perspective over the growing suburban street grid that pushes westward toward Silvermine Farms. Transportation networks, including Us-12 and Wi-312, intersect with older local routes like N Clairemont Ave, showing the integration of modern highways into the established river-city layout.
