2018 Map of Finley

About this map

Meadow Valley and the small settlement of Finley sit within a highly engineered wetland landscape in Juneau County, characterized by an extensive network of water control features. This 2018 survey documents a complex system of ditches and laterals, including the Spencer-Robinson Ditch and the Albrecht Lateral, which manage the flow of the Little Yellow River. Large impoundments like Greenhead Flowage, Goose Pool, and Number Thirteen Pool dominate the terrain, reflecting the area's importance for water management and habitat conservation. Genealogists may find interest in the Meadow Valley Cem, while the grid of rural roads like Finley Rd and Johnson Rd provides a clear view of the area's modern spatial organization near the Wood County line. The map highlights a transition from traditional settlements like Sprague to a landscape defined by industrial-scale drainage and reservoir pools.
