About this map

The Plover River meanders through this portion of Portage County, defining a landscape shaped by glacial activity and early industry. The settlement of Shantytown serves as a local landmark near Wadley Lake, while the Bentley Sawmill Dam on the river indicates the historical importance of timber and water power to this region. The area is dense with water bodies, from the prominent Big Bass Lake and Little Bass Lake to smaller features like Dana Pond and Glisezinski Lake.

Transport is defined by a grid of county highways and local roads such as Shantytown Dr and Leather Camp Dr, which facilitate movement between the various lakes and farmsteads. The eastern edge of the map features Ice Age Ln, hinting at the significant geological heritage of the region. This 2010 survey provides a detailed look at the drainage patterns of North Creek and Lost Creek as they feed into the larger river system.
