The Burlington Northern railroad corridor hugs the eastern shore of the Mississippi River, serving as a distinct boundary between the backwaters of the Upper Mississippi River Wild Life and Fish Refuge and the steep blufflands of Vernon and La Crosse counties. The village of Stoddard sits at the base of these bluffs, where the landscape transitions into a complex network of deep valleys and narrow ridges. These geographical features, locally known as coulees, define the settlement patterns of the region, with small communities like Pleasant Valley and Maple Grove tucked into the upland folds.
