About this map

Lake Superior dominates this northern extent of Bayfield County, where the coastline transitions into the open waters of the Great Lakes. The primary landform is Bark Point, a narrow peninsula extending into the lake and sheltering the waters of Bark Bay to its south. This projection of land serves as a significant navigational marker for the region.

Aside from the rugged shoreline, the only prominent terrestrial development is Bark Point Rd, which follows the spine of the peninsula. The map effectively captures the isolated character of this northern Wisconsin point, focusing on the boundary between the forested land and the expansive lake. This 2022 survey provides a clear view of the modern shoreline before any further coastal shifts or infrastructure changes occur along the Bayfield Peninsula.
