About this map

South Fork Root River meanders through the northern reaches of Houston County, carving a deep valley that defines the local topography in the mid-1960s. The landscape is characterized by the high, narrow Hague Ridge and the Black Hammer Valley, illustrating the driftless area's intricate drainage patterns before they reach the Mississippi. In the southern portion of the map, the burgeoning county seat of Caledonia is visible, showing the early layout of its residential streets, High School, and the local sewage disposal infrastructure.
