About this map

The Campbellsport Drumlins dominate this glacial landscape, shaping a terrain of distinct ridges and low-lying wetlands at the edge of the Ice Age National Scientific Reserve. In the mid-1970s, the village of Campbellsport serves as the regional hub, situated where the Chicago and North Western railroad crosses the Milwaukee River. The river's path is marked by industrial and municipal infrastructure, including the Campbellsport Millpond and several sewage disposal sites.

Rural life across Ashford, Auburn, and Wayne is anchored by small crossroads settlements and country churches such as St Martins Ch and St Bridget Ch. Numerous gravel pits are scattered throughout the quadrangle, reflecting the local extraction industry made possible by the glacial deposits. Water remains a defining feature, from the recreational waters of Lake Bernice to the protected expanse of the Theresa Marsh State Wildlife Area in the southwest corner.
