1981 Map of Boulder Junction

About this map

Boulder Junction serves as the focal point for this lake-strewn landscape in Northern Wisconsin, surrounded by the dense reaches of the Northern Highland-American Legion State Forest. The map captures the area's transition into a premier recreation destination, documented by the numerous shoreline developments at Camp Manito-wish, Camp Fiesta, and several public campgrounds. Significant water bodies like Trout Lake, Big Muskellunge Lake, and the Manitowish River dominate the topography, illustrating the region's post-logging identity. Cultural markers are visible in the Pines Cem and the State Forest Headquarters, while the presence of a Lookout Tower and various waysides like Wayside Park highlight the managed nature of the timberlands. The intricate network of smaller lakes, including Jag Lake and Little Rice Lake, points to the complex glacial drainage patterns that define this section of Vilas County.
