Lake Delton and the bend of the Wisconsin River anchor this 2018 survey of the Sauk and Columbia County line. The landscape is defined by the complex hydrography of the region, where Dell Creek feeds into Mirror Lake before joining the main river system near Wisconsin Dells. This era shows the dense development of the resort area around Lake of the Dells, contrasted by the more rugged, natural terrain of the North Range and Hogsback Ridge to the south. Local heritage is preserved in several rural burial grounds, including Mount Pleasant Cem, Butterfield Cem, and Webster Prairie Cem. Transportation is dominated by the corridor of Interstate 90 and 94, which bisects the quadrangle, while the Baraboo-Wisconsin Dells Regional Airport serves as a modern hub for the area. Smaller settlements like Dellwood sit nestled near the numerous sloughs and creeks, such as Pickerel Slough and Beaver Cr, that carve through the local sandstone topography.
