The Mississippi River carves a massive, multi-channeled path through this borderland between Allamakee County, Iowa, and Crawford County, Wisconsin. The river's intricate hydrology is documented in detail, showing a labyrinth of backwaters such as Harpers Slough, McDonald Slough, and Japan Slough surrounding major landmasses like Delphey Island and Jackson Island. The settlement of Harpers Ferry sits at the river's edge, while Waukon Junction marks a key point where the terrain rises sharply from the bottomlands into the dissected bluffs.
