About this map

Lake Dubay dominates this central Wisconsin landscape, marking a significant hydrological intersection where the Wisconsin River and Little Eau Pleine River converge. The terrain is defined by low-lying wetlands and seasonal floodplains, with the prominent Big Island situated at the northern end of the reservoir. Settlement is concentrated around Knowlton, where the community's history is preserved at the Saint Francis Cem and Knowlton Cem located near the eastern shore.

Further west, the small community of Dancy sits just north of the Marathon and Portage County line, surrounded by a network of rural roads such as Redfield Rd and School Rd. The map details the drainage patterns of local tributaries, including Peplin Creek and Johnson Creek, which feed into the primary river system. This survey illustrates the modern residential development along the shoreline, contrasted with the sprawling natural marshes that characterize this riverine environment.
