USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
Balsam Lake serves as the focal point for this mid-century look at Polk County, Wisconsin, where the namesake county seat is surrounded by a dense network of glacial lakes and small farming townships. The map documents the extensive rural school system of the era, including the Sucker Lake Sch (Abandoned) and Bear Lake Sch, many of which were the heart of local districts like Georgetown and Johnstown.
