2015 Map of Big Briens Lake

About this map

Big Briens Lake and its smaller neighbor, Little Briens Lake, sit at the center of this hydrographic landscape in northern Wisconsin. The South Fork Jump River meanders across the northern portion of the quadrangle, joined by smaller tributaries like Douglas Creek and Knox Creek. The network of roads reveals the region's agricultural and logging layout, with many routes following the section lines of the Public Land Survey System. Noteworthy local identifiers such as Mail Route Rd and Chicago Ave suggest the historical connectivity of this rural area. The terrain is marked by numerous wetlands and small basins, characteristic of the glacial till landscape in Price County, providing a clear record of the drainage patterns and land use in the mid-2010s.
