2018 Map of Rusk

About this map

The Red Cedar River and Tainter Lake dominate the northern landscape of this Dunn County quadrangle, where the small settlement of Rusk sits at the intersection of local rail and road networks. To the southwest, the outskirts of Menomonie are anchored by the Menomonie Municipal Airport-Score Field. The terrain transitions from these water bodies and developed areas into the high ground of Hanke Hill and the low-lying Elk Mound Marsh. Genealogists and local historians can locate several burial sites throughout the township, including Hill Grove Cem in the northeast, Cedar Falls Cem near the river, and the Potters Field Cem located south of the airport. The grid-like arrangement of rural roads like Co RD E and Co RD BB frames a mix of agricultural land and scattered wetlands fed by Sinking Cr and Muddy Cr.
