Eau Claire: Chippewa Valley University Town
Eau Claire developed at the junction of the Eau Claire and Chippewa Rivers as a lumber town during the mid-nineteenth century. Sawmills lined both riverbanks, processing white pine floated down from the north woods. The Weyerhaeuser timber empire had early roots in the Chippewa Valley before its operations expanded westward. The Dells Mill and the Paul Bunyan Logging Camp Museum preserve elements of that era.
The University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, established in 1916 as a normal school, now enrolls roughly 10,000 students. The campus straddles the Chippewa River, connected by the footbridge between upper and lower campus. Phoenix Park, built on former industrial land where the two rivers meet, hosts a weekly farmers market and serves as the downtown's central public space.
Justin Vernon, recording as Bon Iver, released the debut album For Emma, Forever Ago in 2007 after a period spent in a family cabin in northwestern Wisconsin. He has remained based in Eau Claire and co-founded the Eaux Claires music festival, along with the April Base recording studio, which has anchored an independent music presence in the city. Menards, the home improvement retailer, is headquartered in nearby Eau Claire County.
