2013 Map of Flambeau Ridge

About this map

The Flambeau River and Chippewa River converge in this northern Wisconsin landscape, creating a complex hydrologic network of flowages and river bends. The prominent Flambeau Ridge rises above the lowlands, while the southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the extensive Holcombe Flowage 4700, where the Jump River enters from the east. This 2013 survey illustrates a region defined by recreational and seasonal settlements, including the Rivers Edge community and the Christian Harbor Youth Camp. Small lakes like LaRose Lake and Bollman Lake dot the wooded terrain, accessed by a grid of rural roads such as Sheep Camp Rd and Ranch Rd. The presence of the Washington Cr Flowage and numerous islands, notably Pine Island, underscores the importance of water management and timber history in Rusk County.
