2022 Map of Heidelberg

South of the river, the landscape transitions to high ground at Hale Ridge and Farmer Ridge, where the historic Sheltowee Trace Trl winds through the forest. The map documents the persistent settlement patterns of this coal and timber region, from the riverside flats of Willow Shoals to the upland community of Ida May. Local landmarks like Willow Shoals Bar and the prominent Pinnacle overlook the river, while numerous tributary streams such as Sturgeon Creek and Grassy Fork drain the narrow valleys.
