Glacial topography and a dense network of inland lakes define this Barron County landscape, where the Ice Age National Scenic Trail winds through the eastern hills. The village of Haugen serves as a northern anchor, situated near the shores of Bear Lake and the Bohemian National Cem. To the south, the expansion of Rice Lake begins to appear, connected to the surrounding countryside by a grid of numbered avenues and county highways. The map reveals a land shaped by both its geology and its immigrant heritage, evidenced by sites like the Stanfold Lutheran Cem and Wiesner Cem. Water is the dominant feature, from the secluded Lake Desair and Ginder Lake to the meandering paths of Little Bear Cr and Hickey Cr. The presence of the Tuscobia settlement along the eastern corridor highlights the historical transit routes that once linked these lakeside communities.
