About this map

The Wisconsin River and its complex network of tributaries define the landscape of Marathon County in this early 1990s revision. This corridor shows the industrial and civic heart of the region, where Wausau transitions into the southern communities of Schofield and Rothschild. The geography is heavily influenced by the winding Big Eau Claire River, which feeds the large Eau Claire Flowage and creates a unique wetland environment near Sandy Beach County Park.

Researchers will find a dense concentration of local institutions, from parochial schools like St Michaels Sch and St Peter Sch to the Wausau Municipal Airport and the historic Hebrew Cem. The map documents the intricate rail connections at Wausau Junction and the growth of Weston east of the river. Industrial landmarks, including several Sand and Gravel Pits, underscore the geological makeup of the river valley during this era of suburban expansion.
