1960 Map of Wauconda
USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
Wauconda sits at the heart of this Lake County landscape, surrounded by a complex network of glacial lakes including Bangs Lake, Slocum Lake, and Wooster Lake. The map reveals a transition into a suburban-recreational corridor during the mid-20th century, where residential developments like Island Lake and Lakemoor began to expand around established natural features. The presence of multiple organized camps, such as Camp Henry Horner and Camp Hickory, highlights the area's historical role as a regional getaway for those fleeing the city.
