We present a generalization of the functional equation for the Weierstrassk $\wp$-function for hyperelliptic surfaces of infinite genus arising from iteration of the horseshoe and baker maps. The ramified cover of these infinite genus surfaces over the complex plane are associated to a quadratic differential of finite norm with simple poles accumulating to infinity. We study the geometry of its critical trajectories emanating from these poles and their rate of accumulation.
