About this map

Marathon City stands as the primary hub in this central Wisconsin landscape, situated along the northern banks of the Big Rib River. The grid of the village is clearly defined by residential streets such as 4th St and 6th St, with local history rooted at Saint Marys Cem and Saint Matthews Cem. The surrounding terrain is a network of agricultural lands and watercourses, including the notable Rolling Meadows area to the northeast.

Drainage throughout the region is shaped by numerous tributaries, with Scotch Creek and Artus Cr feeding into the river system. The rural character is preserved through a dense network of county roads like Co Rd B and Co Rd U that connect the outlying farmsteads to the central settlement. This 2018 survey documents the enduring physical layout of the community and its relationship to the Rib River valley floor.
