About this map

The Flambeau River winds through the southeastern corner of this northern Wisconsin landscape, where it surrounds the namesake Babbs Island. This terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways, including the meandering Thornapple River in the northwest and several significant tributaries such as Beaver Creek, Long Creek, and Bear Creek. The rural character of the area is further evidenced by a grid of local roads and county highways that navigate the wetland and river systems.

Transportation routes like County Hwy M and County Hwy Rd W provide the primary framework for the area, connecting scattered residential points. Notable local thoroughfares such as Oconnel Rd, Bear Lane Rd, and Hibbening Rd suggest localized settlement patterns and land use in this riverine environment. The map captures the quiet, hydrologically complex transition from the Thornapple to the Flambeau drainage basins.
