2015 Map of Babcock

About this map

Yellow River and Hemlock Creek define the hydrologic character of this central Wisconsin landscape, where the geography is heavily shaped by the region's cranberry production industry. The unincorporated community of Cranmoor sits amidst a network of drainage canals and specialized agriculture, supported by the Whittlesey Cranberry Co Airport and specialized fields like Gottschalk Field. To the west, the settlement of Babcock serves as a local hub near the Babcock Cem, while Dexterville occupies the northern reach of the survey. The transport network reflects a transition from early wilderness trails to a grid of rural lanes with evocative names such as Lonesome Rd and Hemlock Trl. This documentation captures the precise intersections of water management and rural life, including the course of Cranberry Cr as it flows through the township boundaries of t22n r4e and t21n r4e.
