About this map

The Baraboo River and the Little Lemonweir River define the undulating landscape of this border region between Monroe and Juneau Counties. Settled along the riverbanks and nestled in topographic depressions like Glassman Valley, Sherman Valley, and Mack Valley, towns such as Elroy and Kendall serve as anchor points for a network of rural roads including Co Hwy N and Co Hwy P. The terrain is characterized by prominent elevations like Clifton Ridge, which rise above the surrounding valleys.

A notable engineering feature, the Number One Tunnel, reflects the historical significance of the transportation corridors cutting through the ridges here. Local genealogy and history are preserved at sites like the Fountain Lutheran Cem, West Lemonweir Cem, and the Fowler-Sherman Cem near the Glendale community. The map details an area defined by its reliance on the river valleys for both travel and settlement, providing a look at the land's structure in the mid-2010s.
