About this map

Gillett serves as the primary hub of this Oconto County landscape, situated at the junction of Wi-32 and Co HWY-V. The town's grid is defined by its proximity to local waterways, including Christie Brook and the small, distinct basin of Savage Lake. Outside the residential center, the geography is characterized by an extensive network of family-named roads and rural infrastructure, such as the Maple Valley Orchard and Nursery to the northwest.

A dense collection of kettle lakes and tributaries punctuates the surrounding terrain, suggesting a classic post-glacial topography. These features range from the larger Christie Lake in the southwest to a cluster of smaller bodies like Finnegan Lake, Klaus Lake, and Brooks Lake. In the far southeast corner, the Oconto River cuts across the map, marking the lowest drainage point for the numerous creeks like Daly Cr that lace through the agricultural and wooded parcels.
