2022 Map of Reno

About this map

Freeburg and Reno anchor this landscape where the bluffs of Houston County meet the intricate wetlands of the Mississippi River valley. The high ground is defined by prominent features like Jefferson Ridge and Twin Bluffs, while the eastern portion of the map is dominated by a complex network of backwaters including Minnesota Slough, Bluff Slough, and Hayshore Lake. For those researching local heritage, the map identifies several distinct burial grounds such as Saint Nicholas Catholic Cem and the Old Methodist Cem, which speak to the early community foundations in the region. The transition from the rugged upland ridges to the river's edge is marked by steep elevation changes and drainage systems like Winnebago Creek and Crooked Cr. Near the southern border, the settlement of New Albin sits just above the state line, while Millstone Lndg serves as a notable landmark along the river's edge.
