1970 Map of Eagle River West

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Wisconsin River snakes through the heart of this Northwoods landscape, defined by a dense concentration of glacial lakes and managed timberlands. In the early 1970s, the area shows a clear transition between the wilder southern sections of the American Legion State Forest and the developing infrastructure around the local regional hub. The Eagle River Municipal Airport and nearby Landing Field highlight the importance of aviation for access to this remote lake country. Along the river, industrial and recreational utility meet at the Otter Rapids Dam and its associated Powerhouse, while the Chicago and North Western tracks parallel the eastern edge of the survey. From the deep waters of Boot Lake to the smaller Chickaree Lake, the map documents a water-rich geography where Gravel Pits and forest roads like Boot Lake Road support the local economy.
