2016 Map of Pleasant Ridge

About this map

Wyoming Valley and Jones Valley anchor this portion of the Wisconsin Driftless Area, where a complex network of ridges and hollows dictates the pattern of local life. The map illustrates a landscape defined by names like Amacher Hollow, Cox Hollow, and Bunker Hill, highlighting how the undulating terrain shaped early development. Water features such as Halverson Lake, Twin Valley Lake, and Cox Hollow Lake are central to the landscape, fed by creeks like Mill Cr and Lowery Cr. For those tracing local heritage, the distribution of small burial sites such as Wyoming Cem, Griffith Cem, and the Rockwell Mills Cemetery provides a clear view of the area's ancestral footprint. The settlement of Pleasant Ridge sits at a crossroads, surrounded by a rural grid of namesake roads including Hillside School Rd and Chimney Rock Rd.
