About this map

The Saint Croix River forms a naturally winding border between Wisconsin and Minnesota on this 2015 survey, defining the western edge of Osceola and Franconia. This river corridor is protected as the Lower Saint Croix National Scenic Riverway, a landscape marked by dramatic elevation changes and complex water features like Rice Lake, Peaslee Lake, and the winding Close Slough. To the east, the terrain transitions into the agricultural and residential highlands of Polk County, where the village of Dresser sits near the eastern map boundary.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by established sites like the Ramsey Cem and Pleasant Prairie Cem, along with the small community of East Farmington in the south. Aviation infrastructure is represented by the L O Simenstad Municipal Airport south of the Osceola village center. The map captures the modern road network, including Saint Croix Trl and Osceola Rd, which navigate the region's glacial topography and numerous small water bodies such as Osceola Lake.
