About this map

Audubon Lake dominates the southern reaches of this McLean County landscape, where the prairie transitions into a complex network of wetlands and potholes. This modern survey illustrates a region shaped by conservation and rural tradition, anchored by the McLean County Waterfowl Production Area in the north. The cultural history of the plains is visible in the scattered country burial grounds that reflect early settlement patterns, including the Endres Catholic Cem, Saint Johns Congregational Cem, and First German Baptist Cem. The road network is a mix of section-line routes and modern access ways like Walleye Way and Scenic Way, which serve the recreational and residential interests centered around the lake. The presence of Old Hwy 83 running north-south provides a trace of former primary transportation corridors before contemporary highway realignments.
