1972 Map of Blackwell

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Peshtigo River winds through this heavily forested portion of the Nicolet National Forest in the early 1970s. The settlement of Blackwell serves as the primary hub, situated near the Blackwell Job Corps Center and a Trailer Park. This era of the landscape is defined by a transition from early-century infrastructure to modern recreation, visible where an Old Railroad Grade follows the Rat River valley near modern sites like the Bear Lake Campground. Numerous small water bodies, including Shabodock Lake, Purdy Lake, and the artificial CCC Pond, are scattered across the terrain, connected by a network of drainage creeks like Piledriver Creek and Stoney Creek. Local resource extraction is noted by a Gravel Pit near the town center, while remote areas are accessed via Burnt Bridge Road and Trestle Road.
