About this map

The Buffalo River valley in the mid-1970s is defined by a dense network of coulees and ridges where Naples and Albion townships meet. The Chicago and North Western railroad tracks parallel the river's winding course, serving a landscape dominated by agricultural valley floors and timbered heights like Bennett Ridge and the prominent Chimney Rock.

Social and civic life is anchored by local landmarks such as Norden Trinity Ch, Naples Sch, and the Townhall. The presence of several Quarries and the Mondovi Airfield indicate the local industrial and transportation infrastructure of the era. The terrain is deeply carved by numerous waterways, including Rossman Creek, Elk Creek, and Peeso Creek, which dictate the placement of winding country roads such as Birch Road and Oak Road.
