2015 Map of Mission Lake

About this map

Elderon anchors the eastern edge of this landscape, where the agricultural grid meets the dense network of kettle lakes and wetlands characteristic of the Wisconsin-Marathon County border. The namesake Mission Lake sits centrally alongside Little Lake, surrounded by a web of local roads such as Mission Lake Rd and Co Park Rd that suggest long-standing recreation and residential patterns. Further north, the Plover River winds through the western townships, passing near Rice Lake and Pike Lake, which is fed by Pike Lake Cr. The placement of Saint Francis Cem in the northeast and Evergreen Rest Cem further south provides important markers for genealogical research. Throughout the quadrangle, smaller waterways like Comet Cr and McVay Brook drain the undulating glacial terrain, illustrating the hydrologic complexity of this rural region.
