1938 Map of Alvin

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Nicolet National Forest dominates this landscape, showing a region defined by early 20th-century timber extraction and conservation infrastructure. The northern reaches of Forest County and Vilas County are captured here as they appeared in 1938, a period when the Lumber RR and numerous truck trails, such as Truck Trail No 406, supported the local logging industry. The settlement of Alvin serves as the primary hub, surrounded by a dense network of water bodies including Howell Lake and the Pine River.
