About this map

Wayside and Lick Creek serve as the primary nodes of settlement in this southern Illinois landscape, situated at the intersection of Union, Williamson, and Johnson counties. The region is defined by significant federal and state protected lands, including the Panther Den Wilderness and portions of the Shawnee National Forest. The topography is shaped by dramatic sandstone features like Chimney Rock and Drapers Bluff, with the River to River Trail traversing the wooded hills and creek valleys. Numerous country churches and family burial grounds, such as Cumberland Ch and the Old Pleasant Hill Cem, are scattered across the terrain, reflecting a deep-rooted rural community. To the north, the waters of Devils Kitchen Lake and Little Grassy Lake provide a transition from the dense forest to the managed lands of the Crab Orchard National Wildlife Refuge.
