1979 Map of Rib River Lookout Tower

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Greenwood, Browning, and Goodrich intersect in this wooded and agricultural stretch of Taylor County, defined by a complex network of wetlands and small waterways. The Big Rib River cuts through the northeast, while the Little Black River and its East Branch drainage system dominate the central landscape. Local social and educational life in the late 1970s is anchored by landmarks like St Peter Ch, Greenwood Sch, and Cloverdale Sch. The presence of the Rib River Lookout Tower and a Radio Tower suggests the high ground required for early fire spotting and communications. Settlers and farmers here utilized a grid of rural lanes, including Shady Lane Ave and Tamarack Drive, many of which follow section lines through the alternating woodlots and clearings characteristic of central Wisconsin.
