2010 Map of Rushford West

About this map

Peterson and Rushford anchor this detailed study of the Root River valley in Fillmore County during the early 21st century. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Root River, which is joined by Pine Creek and Rush Creek as they cut through the regional topography. For those researching local heritage, the map identifies numerous family and community landmarks, including several burial grounds such as Arendahl Cemetery, Hungerholdt Cemetery, and the West Grace Cemetery near Peterson. Infrastructure and local industry are marked by the Robert Highum Dam and the Rushford Municipal Airport. The settlement pattern follows the river corridor, with South Rushford and Rushford Village expanding near the confluence of the valley's major waterways.
