About this map

The Big Rib River meanders across this landscape, defining the geography around the village of Marathon. This 2010 survey shows a well-established network of county highways and local roads, such as County Hwy-NN and Packer Dr, which connect the residential and agricultural plots of central Wisconsin. Local history and genealogy interest is concentrated near the settlement, where Saint Marys Cemetery and Saint Matthews Cemetery are located along the banks of Scotch Creek.

The terrain is dissected by numerous waterways including Artus Creek, Kennedy Creek, and Little Brook. Notable landmarks include the Marathon Lookout Tower in the southeast and the Pine Valley Golf Course north of the river. The map illustrates a transition from the structured village grid to more rural land uses, marked by named roads like Alpine Rd and Evergreen Rd that traverse the watershed of Fourmile Creek.
