About this map

Spring Coulee and the meandering channels of Little Deep Creek define this agricultural landscape in McHenry County. The terrain is marked by the distinct cultural heritage of early settlers, evidenced by three local burying grounds: Spring Coulee Norwegian Lutheran Cem, Bethlehem Lutheran Cem, and Saint Paul Cem. These sites, along with the section-line road network, indicate a community deeply tied to its rural townships. Aviation interests are represented by the Marsh Brothers Airstrip in the north, while the winding Cut Bank Creek crosses the northern sections. The map reveals the precise organization of T158N and T159N, showing how the natural drainage of the coulees and creeks influenced the placement of early 21st-century rural infrastructure.
