1901 Map of St Croix Dalles

USGS Topo · Published 1913

About this map

The dramatic river gorge of the St. Croix River dominates this 1897 survey, serving as the border between Wisconsin and Minnesota. This landscape is defined by its early rail connectivity, featuring the Minneapolis ST. Paul And Sault Ste. Marie RY. and the ST. Paul And Duluth R. R. converging at significant transit points like Dresser Junction. The map captures the twin settlements of St. Croix Falls and Taylors Falls perched above the river, where the Taylors Falls Branch line terminates. To the east and west, the terrain transitions into a dense network of glacial lakes including Deer Lake, Big Horseshoe Lake, and Sand Lake, supporting early agricultural townships like Osceola, Farmington, and Balsam. The presence of small rail stops such as Franconia Station illustrates the late 19th-century reliance on steam power to link these river towns with the larger regional markets.
