About this map

The Fox River system dominates this Marquette County landscape, widening significantly into the expansive Buffalo Lake at the settlement of Packwaukee. This hydrologic network is further defined by the confluence of the Montello River, Ox Creek, and the Mad River, illustrating a complex wetland and riverine environment. Human engineering is evidenced by the Richards Mill 3WR1902 Dam, a specific landmark that points to the area's industrial water-management history near Montello Corners.

Upland from the river bottoms, the map detail shows a transition to agricultural and rural residential patterns, including smaller airfields like Sandwater Airport and Cacic Airport. For those researching local family history, the sheet preserves the locations of Sheldon Cemetery and Oak Hill Cemetery, alongside numerous named lakes such as Christensen Lake and Williams Lake, which dot the northern and eastern portions of the quadrangle.
