The Wisconsin River carves a dramatic path through this 2016 survey, defining the intersection of Juneau, Adams, Sauk, and Columbia counties. The map details the transition between the Upper Dells and Lower Dells, highlighting the intricate sandstone formations that have long made this region a destination. Named landmarks such as Stand Rock, Witches Gulch, and Steamboat Rock are documented along the river's edge, while Blackhawk Island sits just north of the Wisconsin Dells town center. Away from the water, the landscape includes the settlement of Plainville and several small family and community burial grounds, including Olin Cem and Dupless Cem. This record of the modern shoreline and local infrastructure preserves the names of the small ravines and glens, like Artist Glen and Coldwater Canyon, that comprise the region's unique geography.
