About this map

The Mississippi River and its complex network of side channels like Straight Slough and Crooked Slough dominate this 1920s survey of the river valley. The landscape transitions sharply from the broad, marshy bottomlands of the Trempealeau River to the steep, deeply eroded bluffs of Buffalo Ridge and Glencoe Ridge. This transition is marked by numerous family-named valleys, such as Joos Valley Creek and Bohris Valley, each typically hosting a local schoolhouse.
