1973 Map of Pickwick

About this map

Kings Bluff and Queens Bluff tower over the Mississippi River as it passes through the Upper Mississippi River Wild Life and Fish Refuge during the mid-1970s. This survey records a landscape of dramatic topography where high ridges like Homer Ridge and Husman Ridge are bisected by deep valleys, including Miller Valley and the basin of Trout Creek. The settlement at Pickwick sits at the northwestern edge of this terrain, while Nodine and New Hartford occupy higher ground to the south.
