2018 Map of Wyanet

About this map

Wyanet and Tiskilwa anchor this Bureau County landscape, which is defined by the winding course of Big Bureau Creek and its many tributaries. The area exhibits a dense concentration of local heritage sites, particularly in its numerous burial grounds such as Forest Hill Cem and the County Home Cem. The topography transitions from the flatter northern sections around Pond Cr to the more varied terrain of Plow Hollow and Rocky Run in the south. Smaller communities like Providence and Cedar Bluff provide context for the rural settlement patterns that persist alongside water bodies like Bolton Lakes and Twin Faun Lake. The map reveals a highly structured grid of local roads, including 1500 North Ave and Co Rd 1400 E, which navigate the drainages of Silver Cr and Coal Cr as they feed into the larger creek systems.
