1974 Map of River Falls East

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

River Falls serves as the academic and cultural anchor for this mid-1970s landscape, dominated by the campus of the University of Wisconsin-River Falls and its associated Experimental Farm. The terrain is deeply etched by the Kinnickinnic and Trimbelle River systems, which create a dendritic pattern of wooded coulees and agricultural uplands. Evidence of former transit networks appears in the southeast, where an Old Railroad Grade runs parallel to Goose Creek toward the settlement of Beldenville. This survey is particularly rich for genealogical research, documenting several distinct burial grounds including Union Cem, Greenwood Cem, and the more remote Thurston Hill Cem. Scattered rural landmarks such as the Cherma Ch and various quarries suggest a long-established community structure that balances its collegiate character with a traditional agrarian and river-valley economy.
