About this map

The western shores of the Door Peninsula meet the waters of Green Bay in this 2010 topographic representation. The landscape is defined by the prominent Monument Point and the adjacent Monument Shoal, while the interior showcases a grid of rural roads and scattered settlements. Small communities like Carlsville, Valmy, and Institute serve as local hubs for the surrounding agricultural and residential land.

Hydrology plays a significant role in the local geography, with drainage systems such as Lilly Bay Creek, Donlans Creek, and Logan Creek meandering toward the coastline. Land use is a mix of natural and recreational, highlighted by the Sunny Slope Runway Airport in the north and the Pepperdine Golf Course to the southwest. Notable thoroughfares including Bay Shore Dr and Plum Bottom Rd provide connectivity through this coastal region, where proximity to the bay remains the dominant physical influence.
