1970 Map of Alvin SE

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Nicolet National Forest and Argonne National Forest dominate this 1970 landscape, illustrating a heavily managed timber and conservation environment in northern Wisconsin. The map detail highlights an intricate drainage system defined by the Pine River in the north and the meandering Popple River to the east. The terrain is characterized by extensive wetlands and small glacial basins, including Rat Lake and Waite Lake, which break up the dense forest cover. A solitary Gravel Pit near the eastern boundary and the presence of Ross township markings indicate the light industrial and administrative footprint in this otherwise wilderness-focused area. The intersection of numerous waterways like Sawyer Creek and Jones Creek suggests a landscape shaped by glacial recession, providing a primary record of the region's natural hydrology before significant modern development.
