About this map

Clam Falls sits at the heart of this Northwoods landscape, where the Clam River is impounded to form the Clam Falls Flowage. The terrain is defined by a dense network of glacial water bodies and wetlands, including Somers Lake, Weiss Lake, and Crooked Lake. A significant cultural and recreational feature is the Ice Age National Scenic Trail, which winds through the eastern half of the map, following the glacial moraines and ridges that characterize this part of Polk County.

In the northern reaches near the border with Burnett County, the small settlement of Coomer appears along County Road B. For those researching local family history, the Lewis Cem is located in the northwest, near the junction of 353rd Avenue and 95th Street. The map details a transition from the drainage of Knapp Creek in the west to the more rugged lake country of the southeast, where Margaret Lake and Tula Lake are found.
