The Peshtigo riverfront and its surrounding rural townships dominate this Marinette County landscape, where the town of Peshtigo sits at the edge of the river's significant hydroelectric and industrial infrastructure. The map documents the northern reaches of the settlement, showing the Peshtigo Flowage 1086 and Bagley Flowage 1061 as they widen the river's course. West of the water, the terrain is defined by a grid of farm roads and small agricultural clusters, including Harmony and May Corner. Local drainage through the fields is managed by Bundy Cr and Trout Cr, which eventually lead back toward the river valley. Notable landmarks from this era include the Peshtigo Lookout Tower and the corridor of Wi-64, which serves as a primary east-west artery through the township, connecting the more densely settled areas near the river to the sprawling timber and dairy lands further inland.
