About this map

The James River valley in Brown County defines this landscape, dominated by the sprawling Sand Lake National Wildlife Refuge. Established to protect migratory waterfowl, the refuge encompasses a complex network of wetlands including Mud Lake, Sand Lake, and the Greenfield Reservoir. These water bodies are flanked by the townships of Liberty, Portage, Lansing, and Shelby, which reflect the region's agricultural grid system.
