2015 Map of Alexander Lake

About this map

Wisconsin River waters dominate the eastern landscape of this Lincoln County survey, forming the significant reservoir of Alexander Flowage and the connected Alexander Lake. This area north of Merrill represents a complex hydraulic network where the New Wood River and Copper River converge with the main stem. The topography is defined by prominent elevations such as Snow Hill and Ninemile Hill, which rise above the surrounding wetlands of Bagan Marsh. For those researching local heritage, the map identifies specific burial sites including the Snow Hill Cem and Methodist Cem. The network of rural roads like Forks Rd and Corning Rd serves a landscape of scattered homesteads and timbered tracts, illustrating the late 20th-century development patterns in north-central Wisconsin.
