About this map

Pray sits at the southwestern edge of this landscape, marking a clear point of settlement in an area otherwise defined by the complex water systems of central Wisconsin. The boundary between Clark Co and Jackson Co bisects the terrain, which is dominated by the meandering path of the East Fork Black River and its numerous tributaries. Dense wetlands and marshes are prominent, particularly the Ammundson Marsh in the southeast and the smaller Washburn Pond near the center. The presence of Sherwood Lake and topographical features like Brushy Ridge indicate a diverse natural environment where land use is largely dictated by the saturation of the soil. A network of rural roads such as Pray Rd and Ballard Rd provides access through these drainages, connecting the isolated residences and agricultural plots that follow the more stable ground between Hay Meadow Cr and Rock Cr.
