About this map

The cranberry production landscape of west-central Wisconsin is extensively documented in this 1980s survey, particularly where the Chicago and North Western rail line cuts through the marshy lowlands of Millston and Knapp. Numerous Cranberry Bogs dominate the drainage patterns of Robinson Creek and Pigeon Cr, illustrating the specialized agricultural industry that defines the region. To the south, the village of Warrens serves as a hub near the McMullen Memorial County Park and the expansive waters of Wazeda Lake.

Significant public and restricted lands border the agricultural zones, including a portion of the Fort McCoy Military Reservation in the southwest and the Black River State Forest to the northwest. Local history is anchored by landmarks such as St Lukes Ch, the Knapp Cem, and the prominent Knapp Mound, while recreational sites like the Sharptail Flowage and various sandpits reflect the area's varied land use during this era.
