1970 Map of Alvin NW

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Nicolet National Forest dominates this landscape in northern Wisconsin, where the headwaters of the Brule River and the North Branch Pine River drain a terrain dense with glacial lakes. This 1970 field-checked survey reveals a backcountry defined by water and recreational sites, particularly concentrated around the Butternut Lake and Franklin Lake systems. Notable for local history and outdoor research, the map highlights the established Luna-White Deer Campground and Camp White Deer, alongside more remote features like Indian Camp Lake and Two Sisters Lakes. The boundary between Vilas County and Forest County runs through the northern section, crossing through the timbered wetlands near Kentuck Lake. The absence of developed towns underscores the area's character as a preserved wilderness at the height of the mid-century forest management era.
