About this map

The Chequamegon National Forest dominates this northern Wisconsin landscape, where the South Fork Flambeau River carves a winding path through Price and Ashland counties. This terrain is defined by its complex glacial hydrology, featuring a dense network of water bodies including Blockhouse Lake, Iodine Lake, and Beaverdam Lake. The river itself is marked by a series of distinct whitewater features, such as The Ledge Rapids and Forest Rapids, which historically dictated movement and industry in these woods.

Outdoor recreation and forest management are central to the area's modern character, evidenced by an extensive system of trails like the Flambeau Atv 111 Trl and the Wintergreen Loop A Trl. These routes, alongside established roads like Hoefferle Rd and Sugar Bush Rd, provide access to the deep interior of the timberlands, connecting isolated lakes such as Hansen Lake and Bullhead Lake to the broader regional network.
