About this map

The East Branch Pecatonica River and Yellowstone River converge in the northeastern reaches of this Lafayette County landscape, carving a network of valleys that define the local geography. Small settlements including Wiota, Argyle, and Lamont serve as the primary nodes for this rural community. The area's deep-rooted heritage is evident through several localized burial sites such as Apple Grove Lutheran Cem, Trinity Cem, and Lamont Cem.

Surface drainage is dominated by numerous tributaries like Apple Br, Whiteside Cr, and Silver Spring Cr, which wind through a pattern of family-named roads. Notable for its unique designation, the Whoopy Hollow Aerodrome is situated south of the Apple Branch, providing a distinct modern landmark amidst the traditional farming landscape. This survey documents the intersection of natural watercourses and the persistent rural infrastructure of southern Wisconsin.
