The Root River meanders through a landscape of deep valleys and prominent ridges, anchoring the settlements of Rushford and Rushford Village. This modern topographic survey reveals the complex drainage patterns of the area, where Money Cr, Ferndale Cr, and Daley Cr cut through the high ground of Oak Ridge and Vinegar Hill. The recreational transformation of the region is evident in the path of the Root River State Trail, which follows the river's winding course across the county line between Winona and Houston. Genealogists will find the locations of Saint Johns Cem and the Oakwood - Sherwood Cem clearly marked. The map also documents smaller locales like Perkins and high points such as Cushings Peak, providing a comprehensive look at the rural road network including Co HWY 17 and Co HWY 27.
