1972 Map of Ella
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
Waterville Prairie and the deep coulees of the Driftless Area define this 1970s landscape at the confluence of the Eau Galle River and the Chippewa River. The map illustrates a complex riparian environment where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad skirts the edge of the Tiffany Wildlife Area, traversing a maze of backwaters like Little Buffalo Slough and Stump Lake. Higher ground is marked by family and community landmarks such as Little Plum Church and its nearby Little Plum Cemetery, alongside the small settlements of Paradise and Ella. Geologic and cultural features like the Eau Galle Mound, Round Hill, and Five Mile Bluff provide significant orientation points for those studying the intersection of transportation and topography in Buffalo and Pepin counties.
