USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
Giant City State Park and the rugged landscapes of the Shawnee National Forest dominate this mid-century topographic survey of southern Illinois. The area around Makanda and Cobden is characterized by high ridges such as Tiptop Knob and the deep drainage of Drury Creek, while the northeast corner shows the managed waters of Little Grassy Lake within the Crab Orchard National Wildlife Refuge. The Illinois Central railroad cuts through the terrain, serving a network of small settlements and rural communities.
