1929 Map of Prairie Du Chien

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Prairie du Chien and the surrounding riverfront of the Mississippi River are meticulously detailed in this survey based on 1929 data. The landscape is defined by the complex hydrology of the river's eastern bank, where a network of channels and sloughs like Ambro Slough, Courtois Slough, and Roseau Channel create a labyrinth of islands including Island No 169. These waterways were central to the region's transport, supported by the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific and the Chicago Burlington and Quincy River railroads.
