About this map

Hersey and Wilson sit as the primary hubs of this rural St. Croix County landscape, situated along the east-west corridor of Us-12. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries that feed into larger drainage systems, including the Eau Galle River in the west and several branches of Wilson Cr and Middle Br Gilbert Cr to the east. The map illustrates a highly structured grid of section roads like State Road 128, which intersects the interstate and local highways to connect these small communities with the surrounding agricultural land.

Water features like the curiously named Lousy Cr and Cady Cr wind through the hills, indicating the natural drainage patterns that have shaped local farm boundaries for generations. The layout of the settlements shows the enduring importance of the transportation corridor, where the proximity of the rail-parallel highway has maintained the viability of these villages through the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
