2022 Map of Richford

About this map

Mecan Springs serves as a focal point for the complex hydrography of this Waushara County landscape, where the Mecan River and various glacial kettle lakes define the terrain. The settlement of Richford is positioned near the southern end of the sheet, adjacent to the Richford Cem and Rogers Pond. The winding path of the Ice Age National Scenic Trl traverses the region, cutting through a high density of water bodies including Lake Virginia, Fish Lake, and Bohn Lake. This network of wetlands and creeks, such as Schmudlach Cr and the S Br Wedde Cr, suggests a landscape shaped by glacial retreat, now utilized for local recreation and agriculture. Further north, the Woodville Cem stands as a quiet marker of earlier rural community centers in the northern townships.
