About this map

Lone Rock sits at the northern edge of the Wisconsin River, serving as a central hub where the borders of Richland, Sauk, and Iowa counties converge. The village is characterized by a grid of local streets including W Liberty St and W Commercial St, situated just north of the expansive river bottoms. The landscape is defined by the braided channels and wetlands of the river valley, where Long Island and Bakkens Pond indicate a complex hydrological environment that has historically shaped local transit and land use.

Elevations rise sharply to the south and west at Bigelow Hill and throughout Penn Hollow, offering a stark contrast to the flat valley floor occupied by the Tri-County Regional Airport. For those researching local history, several burial grounds are documented, including Lone Rock Cem and the Button Cem. The map also traces various watercourses like Otter Cr and Bear Cr as they feed into the main river system near the Wyoming Valley.
