2013 Map of Black Hawk

About this map

Honey Cr and its various branches, including the N Br Honey Cr and E Br Honey Cr, define the drainage and settlement patterns of this rural Sauk County landscape. The community of Leland serves as a central point, situated near the Leland Millpond and the distinct geological formation of the Leland Natural Bridge. This area is characterized by a series of named valleys and draws, such as Irish Valley, Federman Valley, and Hemlock Draw, which suggest a history of localized farming and early land divisions. Further east and south, the smaller settlements of Denzer, Witwen, and Black Hawk are connected by a network of county highways and local roads like Slotty Rd and School Rd. Prominent landmarks such as Tower Rock and Pillar Rock rise above the terrain, providing fixed navigational points in an area dominated by ridges like Dalkey Ridge and Cedar Hill.
