2013 Map of Little Chicago

About this map

Little Chicago sits at a crossroads in northern Marathon County, marking a modest settlement hub within a landscape defined by the drainage of the Rib River system. This 2013 survey documents a predominantly agricultural and rural district where small communities like Naugart and Emmerich are connected by a network of county highways and local lanes. The hydrology of the region is centered on the Little Rib River and the W Fork Little Rib River, which wind through the township alongside smaller tributaries such as Artus Cr and Silver Cr. The road grid, including Wi-107 and Co HWY-A, illustrates the late-20th-century development of this Wisconsin dairy country, preserving the names of local families on routes like Mitchell Ln and Berlin Ln.
