2005 Map of Glidden
USGS Topo · Published 2006About this map
The Glidden settlement and its surrounding north-woods landscape are defined by a complex watershed where the Great Divide separates northward-flowing waters like the Bad River from the southern drainages of the East Fork Chippewa River. Situated within the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, this area reveals a mid-century logging and resource extraction legacy through numerous Gravel Pits and forest service routes like Ranger District Road and Old Morse Road. Genealogists will find the Mt Hope Cem located just north of the town center, while local history is marked by landmarks like Marian Park and the Great Divide Wayside Park. The landscape is dotted with numerous small bodies of water, including Gordon Lake, Summit Lake, and Dry Lake, which reflect the glacial character of this portion of Ashland County.
