About this map

The Jump River settlement and its namesake waterway dominate the northern landscape of Taylor County in this recent survey. This area is characterized by a complex network of managed wetlands and flowages, including Waterfowl Flowage, Holzer Flowage, and Redman Flowage, reflecting a land deeply shaped by water conservation and drainage patterns. These features, along with Lake Ellis Flowage 3-3-0.3 and Shoulder Cr Flowage 0.2, highlight the region's focus on wildlife habitat and hydrology.

In the southern reaches, the settlement of Hannibal sits near the banks of the Fisher River. The map provides significant detail for local historians and genealogists, specifically noting the Mount Nebo Cem located just south of the Jump River community. Rural infrastructure is well-documented through a dense grid of local roads like Sunnyside Rd, Old 194, and Christmas Tree Ln, which connect the scattered homesteads and small farmsteads across the varied terrain of Alder Cr and Shoulder Cr.
