1940 Map of Butternut
USGS Topo · Published 1961About this map
Butternut sits as the primary settlement in this northern Wisconsin landscape during the early 1940s, situated along the Soo Line railroad and Highway 13. The area is defined by a dense network of timber resources and water management, evidenced by numerous logging roads and the strategic placement of the Butternut Fire Tower and Pleasant Lake Fire Tower. To the east, the Flambeau Flowage dominates the hydrology, while the interior is dotted with remote outposts like Old Camp and Teater Camp.
