2010 Map of Viroqua

About this map

Viroqua serves as the primary hub in this corner of Vernon County, where the dendritic drainage patterns of the Driftless Area dictate the placement of roads and farms. High ridges like Irish Ridge, Pierce Ridge, and Dach Ridge separate the narrow valleys carved by the North Fork Bad Axe River and the South Fork Bad Axe River. Water management is evident through a series of structures including the Bad Axe 33 D 2592.1 Dam near Sidie Hollow. Small communities and named locales such as Springville, Bud, and Coon Prairie are connected by a network of county highways and local routes like Belgium Ridge Rd. Local history is preserved at the Pioneer Cemetery and County Farm Cemetery, which sit alongside the agricultural fields and prairie lands that characterize this landscape.
