2011 Map of Pine Island

About this map

The Wisconsin River meanders through this portion of Columbia County, creating a complex network of channels and backwaters around Pine Island. This landscape is defined by its riparian geometry, where the Baraboo River and Leech Creek converge near the settlement of Fox Glen. The area's agricultural and social history is etched into the grid of country roads, marked by several local burial grounds including the Welsh Cemetery and Saint Paul Lutheran Cemetery. Water management is a visible priority on the land, evidenced by the Lewiston 2 C 6118 Dam and the long stretches of Levee Rd that parallel the riverbanks. This 2011 survey serves as a detailed record of the rural infrastructure and natural drainage patterns, from the northern reach of Big Slough down to the southern intersections near the Baraboo River.
