E Aux Sable Cr and its tributaries define the drainage of this prairie landscape as it transitioned toward suburban development in the early 21st century. The map shows the expanding residential street grids north of Joliet, punctuated by local landmarks like the NaAuSay Cem and a series of private airfields including Riley's Field Airport and Rossi's Farm Airport. A distinctive local landmark, S Indian Boundary Rd, cuts diagonally across the northeastern corner of the map, following a historical line of demarcation that predates the modern section lines. Genealogists and local historians can trace the older rural foundations through names like Grove Rd and Schlapp Rd, while observing the burgeoning subdivisions such as those along Whitetail Ridge Dr and Caton Farm Rd.
