About this map

The Wisconsin River carves a wide path through the driftless-area topography of Sauk and Iowa Counties, anchoring a landscape of complex waterways and river-valley settlements. Near the river's bend, the village of Spring Green serves as a focal point, while the smaller community of Helena and the location of Wyoming sit south of the water. The area is defined by its intricate hydrography, including Lower Taliesin Lake and a series of sloughs such as Jones Slough and Hutter Slough that lace between Metcalf Island and Long Island.

Genealogists will find significant markers at the Big Hollow Cem in the north and the Old Helena Cem near Tower Hill. The terrain rises sharply away from the Wisconsin River flats into the Wyoming Valley and Big Hollow, where many roads follow the contours of the rolling ridges. The map records a contemporary view of these traditional Wisconsin river towns, preserving the names of local landmarks like Sweet Island and the drainage of Mill Cr and Lowery Cr.
