The village of Wild Rose sits at the eastern edge of this glacial landscape in central Wisconsin, where the headwaters of the Pine River begin to carve through the terrain. The map reveals a dense network of country roads named for the flora and local families, such as Beechnut Ave and Roberts Rd. This 2015 survey is particularly valuable for genealogists, as it meticulously identifies numerous small burial grounds including Bohemian Cem, Staples Cem, and Webb Cem, many of which represent early settlement nodes like the northern hamlet of Heffron. The southwestern corner is defined by a section of the Ice Age National Scenic Trail, which winds past Lake Waukoma and through the moraines. Other water bodies, including Chain Lake, Fish Lake, and Beans Lake, reflect the region's post-glacial topography.
