Polk County
Historically, logs traveling down the St. Croix River frequently jammed in the Dalles-especially at Angle Rock. People came from miles around to witness the events establishing a pattern of tourism that continues today. With a population of approximately 45,000, the county remains rural with village and small communities dotting the landscape.
