2021 Map of Wausau

About this map

The town of Wausau serves as a southern anchor for this portion of Washington County, where the landscape is defined by a complex network of bays, swamps, and creek systems. Moving north through Bells Mill, the terrain is heavily punctuated by distinct water features such as Cobb Bay Pond and the headwaters of Hard-Labor Cr. This environment reflects a history of small-scale agriculture and timber, with family-named sites like Hartzog Field and several community landmarks including the Shiloh Baptist Cem near the northern border. The eastern section around Bradford and Orange Hill shows a more rolling topography leading toward Falling Water Hill. These features, along with names like Douglas Ferry Rd, point to an era when local commerce and travel were intrinsically tied to navigating the wet lowlands and the various mills that once operated along these Florida panhandle streams.
