About this map

The Sangamon River carves a complex course through this portion of Cass County, creating a mosaic of backwaters, sloughs, and lakes. The Sanganois State Conservation Area dominates the northern half of the landscape, protecting a labyrinthine network of water bodies such as Eagle Lake, Chain Lake, and Crane Lake. This intricate wetland environment, including Cuba Island and Knapps Island, underscores the historical importance of the river’s natural flood cycle before modern hydrologic modifications changed the surrounding Illinois plains.
