1964 Map of Chequamegon Point

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

Chequamegon Point dominates this coastal landscape, a slender barrier beach stretching into the southern reaches of Lake Superior. This survey captures the intricate aquatic network where the inland waters meet the Great Lakes, separating Chequamegon Bay from the open water. The southern portion of the map reveals a vast wetland environment within Sanborn, characterized by the meandering courses of the Kakagon River and the Bad River. These waterways, along with Kakagon Slough and Bad River Slough, create a complex delta system of channels and marshes. The map also records smaller tributaries like Beartrap Creek and Wood Creek as they drain into the sloughs, illustrating the natural hydrological state of this Ashland County shoreline before significant modern development altered these sensitive marshlands.
