1946 Map of Hudson

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Lake St Croix serves as the dominant geographical feature of this mid-1940s survey, marking the watery border between Minnesota and Wisconsin. The map focuses on the eastern shoreline, highlighting the riverfront settlements of North Hudson and the city of Hudson, where the landscape is defined by the steep bluffs rising from the water. Further south, the confluence of the Mississippi River and the St. Croix is anchored by the town of Prescott. The river's navigation and local fishing spots are identified by landmarks like Catfish Bar and Black Bass Bar, while a large portion of the western Minnesota side remains designated as an Unsurveyed Area. This contrast emphasizes the concentration of development and infrastructure on the Wisconsin side during this post-war period.
