2013 Map of Gates Lake

About this map

Hicks Landing serves as a lone settlement marker in this dense northern woods landscape of Price County, where a complex network of forest roads and water bodies defines the terrain. The hydrological profile is particularly detailed, featuring numerous managed water levels such as Schmuland Flowage, Squaw Cr Flowage 6, and Lower Squaw Cr Flowage. These flowages, alongside named natural features like Gates Lake and Solberg Lake, suggest a region heavily utilized for timber management and outdoor recreation. The map traces the winding paths of Sailor Cr and Squaw Creek, which are interconnected by a system of primary routes like Federal Rd and a web of secondary timber access paths including Sailor Lake Rd and N Gates Lake Rd. The presence of Hogsback Springs near the northern boundary provides a specific landmark for those interested in the natural hydrology and early land use of this section of the Wisconsin wilderness.
