About this map

The Kickapoo River meanders through this Monroe County landscape, which is defined by deep valleys such as Dorset Valley, Black Valley, and Kinney Valley. The villages of Wilton and Norwalk serve as the primary population centers, while the small community of Oil City sits at the southern edge. A significant historical and recreational corridor follows the former rail grade, now the Elroy Sparta State Trl, which includes the notable Number Two Tunnel between the two main towns.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several parish and community burial grounds, including Saint Jacobs Cemetery and Saint Paul Cemetery. The terrain is marked by prominent elevations like Mount Sally and Mount Thom, providing a clear view of the drainage patterns of Moore Creek and Sleighton Creek as they feed into the larger river system. The 2010 survey reflects a rural Wisconsin landscape where agriculture and recreation meet along the ancient ridge-and-valley topography.
