1974 Map of Frederic SE

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey and the U.S. Geological Survey produced this orthophotoquad through aerial photography captured in late 1974. Unlike a traditional topographic map with contour lines and color-coded land use symbols, this sheet provides a direct overhead view of the glacial landscape, revealing the complex distribution of woodlots and agricultural fields in northwestern Wisconsin. The photographic detail allows for a precise examination of the era's land management and forest density. While few named features are printed on this specific sheet beyond the primary transport artery of Highway 48, the imagery clearly shows the intricate pattern of kettles and small lakes characteristic of the region's topography. The orthophoto format preserves the exact footprint of farmsteads and rural roads as they existed in the mid-1970s, making it a distinctive resource for comparing modern land development with the rural character of the period.
