1947 Map of Chittamo

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Chittamo and Stanberry serve as the primary hubs in this mid-century survey of the Wisconsin northwoods, a landscape defined by an intricate network of glacial lakes and wetlands. The drainage of the Totagatic River and its numerous tributaries, including Frog Creek and Black Brook, dominates the central terrain. Settlers and early residents would have navigated this area via the emerging State Highway No 77 and County Highway G, while localized communities were anchored by institutions like the Chittamo Sch and Chippanazie Sch. This 1945 aerial compilation shows the region before significant shoreline development, highlighting many family-named water bodies such as Alexander Lake, Haugen Lake, and Desrosier Lake. The presence of the Totagatic Dam and the expansive Nelson Lake illustrates the early management of these waterways for recreational and environmental purposes in the post-war era.
