2022 Map of Eagle

About this map

The Scuppernong River and its tributaries define the glacial landscape of southwestern Waukesha County. This 2022 survey documents the established village centers of Eagle and North Prairie, alongside smaller historical settlements like Jericho and Genesee Depot. The map follows the winding path of the Ice Age National Scenic Trl, which traverses the varied terrain between Ottawa Lake and Eagle. Local heritage is well-preserved in several key burial grounds, including the Salem Cem and Jerusalem Cem near Wales, and the Ottawa Cem situated near the headwaters of Scuppernong Cr. These features, along with numerous glacial lakes such as Larkin Lake and Pretty Lake, illustrate the region's historical reliance on natural water resources and its evolution into a series of interconnected residential and recreation-focused communities.
