The rolling hills of JoDavies County

With the exception of Jo Davies County, the remainder of the topography of Illinois is relatively flat due to the glacial drifts. Jo Davies County is located in what is called a driftless area and as such was not as effected by the sliding plats of ice. As part of the Driftless Area, Jo Daviess County is known for its scenic stretches of road and valley views. Within Jo Daviess County lies Charles Mound, the highest natural point in Illinois. The scenery in Jo Davies county is refreshing and breathtaking to those accustomed to the flat plains of Illinois.
