About this map

Kendall sits at the eastern edge of a landscape defined by an intricate network of narrow valleys and ridges in Monroe County. The drainage patterns are particularly complex here, with the headwaters of the Baraboo River and Little Lemonweir River flowing east while the Kickapoo River system drains toward the west. This topography has shaped local settlement into distinct ridge-top communities such as Dorset-Ridge, South Ridge, and Pleasant Ridge.

Genealogists will find several significant burial sites, including the Immanuel German Lutheran Church Cem and the South Ridge Lutheran Cem. The Elroy-Sparta State Trl follows a historical rail grade through Dorset Valley, passing near the small settlement of Dorset. Notable landmarks like the Pisha Farm Airport and family-named terrain features such as Gammerdinger Valley and Hoye Valley provide specific points of interest for local history researchers.
