About this map

Lake Chetac and its surrounding wetlands define this landscape in Sawyer County, where the settlements of Edgewater and Yarnell are connected by a network of rural roads. The area is characterized by a dense system of glacial hydrology, including Knuteson Lake, Heron Lake, and Wise Lake, alongside the prominent Meteor Hill to the east. Several named points of interest along the western shore of Lake Chetac, such as Indian Point and Pikes Point, suggest a localized history of lakefront occupation and recreation.

Drainage patterns are heavily concentrated around Sucker Cr and Thirty-three Cr, which feed into the larger basin near Pigeon Cr Flowage. The map also captures several natural springs like Red Cedar Springs and Fortyone Creek Spring, which are critical features for understanding the local water table and historic land use. The alignment of Wi-48 provides the primary east-west corridor, linking the small community of Wooddale to the broader regional geography.
