2010 Map of Bloomer

About this map

The Bloomer Mill Dam on the western edge of Bloomer anchors a landscape defined by the convergence of agricultural tradition and modern infrastructure. This 2010 survey records the intricate network of county highways and numbered avenues that partition the terrain between Duncan Creek and McCann Creek. The map provides significant genealogical value through its documentation of rural burial grounds, including Saint Catherine Cemetery to the north and the O'Neil Creek Cemetery near the crossroads of Eagle Point. Small settlements such as Eagleton and Tilden remain connected by the winding course of O'Neil Creek, while aviation interests are represented by the Bloomer Municipal Airport and the Chippewa County Senior Squadron Airport further south. The contrast between the rigid road grid and the meandering waterways illustrates the classic Upper Midwest balance between land management and the natural hydrology of the Lake Como drainage basin.
