About this map

The Mississippi River creates a complex landscape of islands, chutes, and shifting state boundaries in this mid-century survey. Massive river features like Devils Island and Picayune Chute dominate the center of the sheet, where the border between Illinois and Missouri weaves through the channel. On the Illinois side, the river's influence is countered by a significant Levee system protecting the low-lying agricultural flats and small rail towns.
