2018 Map of Ashland West

About this map

Ashland sits at the southwestern curve of Chequamegon Bay, where the urban grid meets the sprawling wetlands and forests of the Lake Superior shore. This 2018 survey detail shows a landscape defined by its proximity to Lake Superior, with numerous drainage systems like Fish Creek, Bay City Cr, and Little Beartrap Cr moving through the terrain. The presence of the Whittlesey Creek National Wildlife Refuge and the Tri Co Corridor indicates a modern focus on conservation and recreation atop an older industrial foundation. Genealogy and local history researchers will find several notable burial grounds located south of the main settlement, including Mount Hope Cem, Saint Agnes Cem, and B'Nai Israel Cem. The map also documents transportation infrastructure ranging from the John F Kennedy Memorial Airport to the Ashland Junction area.
