About this map

Castle Rock Lake dominates the eastern half of this Juneau County landscape, its western shoreline reaching into the townships of Necedah, Clearfield, and Germantown. The reservoir, noted at elevation 882, is fed by the winding Yellow River and the South Branch, which meander through marshy lowlands and forested sections of the Buckhorn State Park and the adjacent Buckhorn State Wildlife Area.

Evidence of the region's transport history is visible in the rail lines that cross the western terrain, including the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific and the Chicago and North Western railroads. Local genealogy is anchored by the St Francis of Assisi Cem and the Danish Cem, while the small settlement of Kelly and the local townhall serve as community landmarks amidst a network of rural roads such as Germantown Road and several sandpits.
