About this map

The Wisconsin River serves as a dominant geographical and political boundary, separating Crawford and Richland counties from Grant County as it flows past the city of Boscobel. This river corridor is dotted with substantial landforms such as Trumbull Island, Patterson Island, and Feather Island. The surrounding landscape is characterized by a complex network of hollows and ridges, including Chitwood Hollow, Gobin Hollow, and Irish Ridge, which illustrate the region's classic driftless-area topography.

Local history and genealogy are well-represented by several burial sites like Saint Patrick Cem, Steele Cem, and Wayne Cem. Small settlements and named locales such as Plugtown and Westport are connected by a web of rural routes like Marietta Valley Rd and Badger Rd. The map also details aviation infrastructure with both Boscobel Airport and the smaller Sky Hollow Airport, alongside water features like Lower Lake and Tr Knapp Creek Reservoir.
