Wisconsin Dells and Lake Delton anchor this mid-1970s survey of the Wisconsin River corridor, where the landscape transitions from established resort communities to the conservation lands of Mirror Lake State Park. The area is defined by its complex hydrology, featuring the winding Wisconsin River and various water bodies like Mirror Lake and Lake of the Dells. Transportation infrastructure is prominent, with the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad cutting through the northeast and the Baraboo-Dells Airport situated to the south. Local heritage is preserved in numerous rural landmarks, including the Webster Prairie Cem and Spring Grove Cem, alongside distinct geological features like Hogsback Ridge and Rattlesnake Knob. The map also captures the recreational character of the era through several campgrounds and the Bell Creek State Wildlife Area.
