Bedrock Geology of Jefferson County, Wisconsin
Located in southeast Wisconsin, Jefferson County is almost entirely blanketed by sediments that were delivered or shaped by the ice sheet that covered this area during the last ice age. New mapping interprets the distribution of the bedrock surface that is buried beneath those glacial sediments as interpreted by three drill cores, over 13,000 well...-

Depth-to-Bedrock Map of Dodge County, Wisconsin
This map shows thicknesses of deposits of unconsolidated materials above the bedrock. Across the county, depth to bedrock ranges from 0 feet, where bedrock is exposed, to over 250 feet within bedrock valleys. Areas with bedrock depths shallower than 20 feet are of particular importance for land-use planning and to the construction stone industry. Such... -
Geologic Map of the Baraboo 7.5-Minute Quadrangle, Sauk County, Wisconsin
The Baraboo quadrangle, records where glaciers stopped in the east-central Baraboo Hills. On this map, 1:24,000 scale, Precambrian igneous and metasedimentary rocks are overlain by Paleozoic sedimentary rocks and, more recently, by glacial deposits. Superb exposures of all three can be found in Devils Lake State Park and Parfreys Glen State Natural Area.-
