About this map

Flambeau River and Chippewa River converge in this northern Wisconsin landscape, where the waters are held by the expansive Holcombe Flowage. The topography is dominated by the prominent east-west elevation of Flambeau Ridge, which stands as a significant landmark south of the river bend. Cultural markers include the Saint Francis Cem located near the riverbank along Lehman Rd, providing a specific point of interest for genealogical research in this rural area.

The map details a network of water bodies and flowages, including Washington Creek Flowage and smaller lakes like Bollman Lake and Roedecker Lake. The confluence of the Jump River with the larger flowage system illustrates the complex hydrology of the region. Local transit is defined by a grid of county roads and named routes such as Bear Hill Rd and Sunnyside Point Rd, which provide access to the timbered terrain and shoreline properties.
