About this map

The Milwaukee River and its eastern branch carve through this glacial landscape, defining a region rich with kettle lakes and wetlands. The village of Kewaskum serves as a southern anchor, while smaller settlements like New Fane, New Prospect, and Saint Michaels are scattered across the terrain, linked by a network of county highways. This area is characterized by its high concentration of named water bodies, including Mauthe Lake, Auburn Lake, and Forest Lake, which suggest a long-standing history of water-based recreation and conservation.

Evidence of this is clear in the presence of the Kettle Moraine Youth Camp and several named trails that wind through the topography. The map details the local road network, from family-named routes like Kaschner Dr and Braatz Dr to larger thoroughfares like State Road 67. The drainage patterns of Stony Cr and Virgin Cr highlight the complex hydrology of the Kettle Moraine region in the early twenty-first century.
