About this map

The lowlands of Dodge County, Wisconsin, define this 2013 landscape, where the W Br Rock River flows through an intricate network of marshes, ditches, and named islands. The settlement of Burnett anchors the southern portion of the map near the Burnett Flowage, while East Waupun and the industrial corridors of S Madison St and S Watertown St mark the northern reaches. The area is characterized by a managed aquatic environment, evidenced by numerous man-made channels like Sommers Ditch, Luebke Ditch, and Stub Ditch that drain the fertile agricultural lands.

Local history and geography are preserved in the naming of dozens of small rises within the wetlands, including Radloff Islands, Goose Island, and Strawberry Island. Boaters and hunters familiar with the region will recognize specific waterways such as Mieske Bay and the Steamboat Channel, along with the controlled waters of Pool One 220. The infrastructure of the early 21st century is represented by the path of State Road 26 and the diagonal crossing of Us-151 near Libby Cr.
