About this map

The Somo River and Spirit River converge in this watery landscape near Tomahawk, where the flow is managed by engineered structures like the Little Somo River 2WP464 Dam and the Jersey 2WP33 Dam. This network of waterways, including Coffee Creek and Armstrong Creek, defines the local geography and historical land use. The presence of the Tomahawk Regional Airport and the Zenith Lookout Tower indicates the area's development as a regional hub for both transportation and forest management.

Water bodies dominate the northern half of the region, with McCarthy Lake and the winding Little Somo River creating a complex drainage system. Further south, the terrain transitions into the broader expanse of the Spirit River, while smaller tributaries like Bauers Creek feed into the larger river systems. This layout reveals the significance of hydro-power and water-based infrastructure in shaping the contemporary boundaries of Lincoln County.
