About this map

Lake Delton and the surrounding resort landscape of Sauk County are captured here just before the turn of the decade, revealing a complex network of recreation, aviation, and water management. The area is defined by the Wisconsin River and the Lower Dells, where leisure sites like Lost Canyon and Clare Island sit alongside critical infrastructure such as the Dell Creek WP 272 Dam. The presence of the Medos Lake Delton Seaplane Base and the Baraboo Wisconsin Dells Airport highlights the importance of regional travel and tourism to the local economy.

Away from the water, the terrain transitions to more prominent features like Hogsback Ridge and Coon Bluff. Cultural and genealogical history is preserved in sites such as Mount Pleasant Cemetery and Webster Prairie Cemetery, while the community of Dellwood sits near the shores of Mirror Lake. The map details how the various creeks, including Hulburt Creek and Harrison Creek, feed into the larger reservoirs and river systems that have long shaped this Wisconsin destination.
