2018 Map of Pleasant Ridge

About this map

Wyoming Valley and Pleasant Valley anchor this Iowa County landscape, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of coulees and hollows typical of the Driftless Area. The settlement of Pleasant Ridge sits atop the high ground between Rush Cr and Meudt Cr, while the village of Ridgeway occupies the southeastern corner. This area is notably dense with local history markers, including the Wyoming Cem, Pleasant Valley Cem, and Rockwell Mills Cem, suggesting long-established farming communities tied to the surrounding drainages. Recreational and natural features such as Cox Hollow Lake and Halverson Lake dominate the southwestern quadrant, connected by the Meadow Valley Trail. The road network, including Hillside School Rd and Amacher Hollow Rd, follows the irregular topography of ridges and valleys like Jones Valley and Yagers Hollow.
