1896 Map of Sun Prairie

About this map

Glacial drumlins and extensive wetlands define the landscape between Sun Prairie and Cambridge in this late nineteenth-century survey of eastern Dane County. The terrain is dominated by the north-south orientation of glacial ridges, which dictated the winding paths of local waterways like Waterloo Creek and Koshkonong Creek. This drainage pattern created significant marshlands, particularly around Goose Lake and Mud Lake.
