1975 Map of North Freedom NW

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Baraboo River winds through the northeast corner of this 1975 aerial study, anchoring a landscape defined by the intersection of riparian geography and systematic agriculture in Sauk County. Unlike traditional line maps, this orthophotoquad provides a direct visual record of the land as it appeared in the mid-1970s, revealing the intricate patterns of contour plowing and field management that shaped the rural economy of the time. The settlement of Rock Springs stands out near the river, while the smaller cluster of La Rue marks a point of historical interest for those tracing the development of local villages. The map captures the exact footprint of farmsteads and woodlots during a period of transition in Wisconsin farming, offering a literal view of property lines and vegetation that conventional topographic symbols often omit.
