About this map

The Kickapoo River winds through a landscape of sharp ridges and deep hollows in this 1980s Crawford County survey. The village of Steuben serves as a central point where local topography like Plainview Ridge and Maple Ridge converge. Further north, the small settlement of Barnum is situated along the riverbanks, illustrating the historical reliance on water-level routes for transport and habitation.

Evidence of earlier infrastructure is preserved in the Old Railroad Grade that parallels the river, while the surrounding hills are dotted with family and community landmarks. Researchers can locate the Haney Sch and Haney Ridge Ch, along with numerous burial grounds such as Posey Cem and Graves Cem. The southern edge of the sheet transitions into the Lower Wisconsin River State Wildlife Area, marking the confluence of the Kickapoo's tributary system with the broader Wisconsin River valley.
