1973 Map of Tamarack

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Arcadia and the smaller settlement of Tamarack anchor this 1973 survey of the Driftless Area’s dissected plateau. The landscape is defined by its characteristic coulee topography, where steep ridges like Arcadia Ridge and Oak Ridge separate deep valleys including Meyers Valley and the American Valley. This map captures a rural network of farmsteads and narrow bottomlands before modern agricultural intensification, centered on the Tamarack Creek State Wildlife Area. Local heritage is evident in the placement of several historic burial grounds, such as Arcadia Cem and Calvary Cem, as well as the Tamarack Ch and Tamarack Cem which served the isolated valley communities. Numerous small quarries are scattered throughout the hillsides, reflecting the local extraction of stone for road building and construction in this pocket of Trempealeau County.
