About this map

Barneveld and Ridgeway anchor the southern portion of this landscape, situated along a primary transportation corridor that includes the Military Ridge State Trl. This trail follows the historic ridgeline route, once a vital military road, separating the drainage basins of the East Branch Pecatonica River and several northward-flowing creeks. The terrain is defined by a series of deeply carved valleys or "hollows," such as Amacher Hollow and Knight Hollow, which give way to prominent high points like Blue Ridge and Pinnacle Bluff.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial sites scattered across the rural townships, including Jennieton Cemetery and Bethel Cemetery. The map also documents the modern water management of the region, featuring several structures like the Twin Parks 7 Dam and others in the Twin Parks series, which regulate the flow of Trout Creek and Duesler Creek as they wind through the Iowa County countryside.
