About this map

Burney Lake and the winding course of the Red River anchor this landscape along the border of Shawano and Menominee counties. The area is defined by a complex network of waterways, including the Little W Br Wolf River and Miller Cr, set within a predominantly rural and forested terrain. The local road system, marked by Bureau of Indian Affairs routes like Bia Rte 118 and Bia Rte 159, suggests a geography shaped by tribal land management and forestry.

Evidence of local history and specific land use appears in family-named and descriptive road labels such as Boehms Rd, Kolpack Rd, and McCall Camp Rd. These routes provide access to smaller water bodies like Kolpack Lake and the numerous wetlands that characterize the drainage basins of the W Br Red River. The presence of National Guard Rd indicates a specific institutional footprint in this northern Wisconsin environment during the early 21st century.
