USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
The Mississippi River creates a complex landscape of islands and chutes along the Illinois and Missouri border, characterized by an intricate network of sloughs like Sny Magill Slough and Cocklebur Slough. In the mid-1930s, this riverine economy was supported by the Chicago and Alton RR and the Chicago Burlington and Quincy RR, which serviced settlements such as Nebo and Pleasant Hill. The presence of Riprap Landing and the Green Wing Club along the riverbank highlights the era's reliance on the water for both transport and recreation.
