About this map

The Bois Brule River snakes through the center of this northern Wisconsin landscape, its course defined by a series of named whitewater stretches including Doodlebug Rapids, Hall Rapids, and Co-op Park Rapids. The settlement of Brule serves as a central hub, while the smaller community of Winneboujou and the location of Wills reflect the historical footprint of Douglas and Bayfield counties.

Tracing the river's path reveals a complex network of tributaries like the Little Bois Brule River and Nebagamon Cr. Local history is anchored by sites like Pine Ridge Cem and the Tri Co Corridor rail trail. The surrounding terrain is dotted with small kettle lakes such as Hoodoo Lake and Carroll Lake, while Sugar Camp Hill rises to the northwest, marking the transition between the dense woodlands and the river valley's traditional transport corridors.
