About this map

The Chequamegon National Forest dominates this northern Wisconsin landscape, reflecting the heavy timber and water management priorities of the early 1970s. The terrain is defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and river systems, including the Brunsweiler River and the headwaters of the Torch River. A notable vestige of the region's industrial past is the Old RR Grade cutting through the eastern portion of the forest, south of Dingdong Creek. This feature, along with several scattered Gravel Pits, points to the infrastructure once required for logging and transport in the townships of Gordon, Morse, and Shanagolden. Recreational development is evident near the center of the map, where a Campground sits between West Twin Lake and East Twin Lake, while more isolated features like Dead Horse Slough and Spider Lake characterize the uncleared wetlands.
