About this map

Lake Pepin dominates this mid-century survey, acting as a natural widening of the Mississippi River that defines the border between Wisconsin and Minnesota. The riverfront economy and transit patterns of the early 1950s are evident in the density of rail lines, with the Burlington Northern and the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific tracing the water's edge on either side. Near the confluence of the Chippewa River and the Mississippi, the village of Reads Landing sits across from the river delta's intricate network of sloughs, including Battle Slough and Indian Slough.
