About this map

Harshaw and Goodnow serve as the primary focal points in this lake-dense region of Oneida County, where the landscape is defined by an intricate network of glacial kettle lakes and wetlands. The prominent Bearskin State Trl cuts a diagonal path through the terrain, tracing a corridor once vital to the northwoods timber industry. This trail links several water bodies, including the expansive Bearskin Lake and Little Bearskin Lake, providing a clear look at the area's recreational and historical connectivity.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant detail in the presence of the Northwoods National Cem and Union Grove Cem near the center of the sheet. The drainage patterns of the Tomahawk River and Bearskin Creek dictate the local geography, while specialized landmarks like the Pinewood Air Park indicate the modern integration of aviation into this remote wooded landscape. From the shores of Oneida Lake to the small clearings of Jackson Hts, the map documents a community deeply intertwined with its hydrologic surroundings.
