Pine Lake and the industrial remnants of the Nicolet National Forest define this landscape in the mid-1960s. The settlement of Hiles occupies the northern shores, where the Hiles Millpond and an old Railroad Grade point to a history of timber and transport. In the eastern portion of the map, the town of Argonne serves as a local hub near the Soo Line tracks, with Wisconsin Junction marking a nearby rail intersection. The terrain is deeply hydrological, characterized by the sprawling Island Swamp and the headwaters of the North Branch, West Branch, and Middle Branch Peshtigo Rivers. Genealogists will find several burial grounds, including Hiles Cem, Argonne Cem, and St Marys Cem, while the Hiles Lookout Tower stands as a prominent landmark for forest fire observation during this era.
