1962 Map of New Glarus

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

New Glarus serves as the focal point for this early 1960s study of southern Wisconsin, situated where the Little Sugar River begins its winding course southward. The landscape is defined by a dense network of dairy-land valleys, including Krieg Valley Creek and Durest Valley, alongside numerous limestone quarries that dot the hillsides near Mt Vernon and Belleville. The era's transportation infrastructure is preserved in detail, featuring the Illinois Central Railroad and the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific Railroad carving through the glaciated terrain.
