The Yahara River system defines the northern half of this landscape, connecting the expansive waters of Lake Waubesa and Lake Kegonsa. These glacial lakes are surrounded by a network of smaller wetlands and basins, including Grass Lake, Mud Lake, and Island Lake, which have historically influenced the settlement patterns and road networks of Dane County. The map details the outskirts of growing communities like Oregon, Fitchburg, and Stoughton, while preserving the location of older rural sites like the Town of Dunn Burying Ground.
