2019 Map of Alamo

About this map

Sugar Creek carves a deep path through this portion of West Central Indiana, where the borders of Montgomery, Parke, and Fountain counties converge. The rugged topography along the waterway is marked by notable geologic formations such as Devils Backbone and Pedestal Rock, while Deer Mill and Sycamore Ford indicate historic points of crossing and industry. The settlement pattern is anchored by the towns of Waveland and Alamo, connected by a network of county roads like Co RD 400 S and Waveland Rd. Researchers will find a wealth of local history in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, including Stonebraker Cem and Maple Ridge Cem. To the south, the expansive Lake Waveland and the surrounding trail systems, including Back Pack Trail near Shades Pond, highlight the area's contemporary role in regional recreation.
