About this map

The South Fork Flambeau River defines this northern Wisconsin landscape, carving a path through dense woodlands where water and elevation create a series of named whitewater features. These include The Ledge Rapids, Sixth Rapids, and Forest Rapids, which historically influenced local river navigation and timber transit. The interior is characterized by a dense network of glacial lakes and small tributaries such as Tracy Creek and Hay Creek.

A key landmark for forest management is the Fifield Lookout Tower, positioned along State Hwy 70 in the southern portion of the region. The map also traces an extensive system of forest roads, including Hoffman Lake Rd and Blockhouse Lake Rd, which provide access to significant water bodies like Blockhouse Lake and Wintergreen Lake. This network of primitive and secondary roads reflects the area's ongoing use for logging and recreation within the surrounding forest tracts.
