About this map

The Flambeau River carves a winding path through the borderlands of Ashland Co and Iron Co, defining a landscape shaped by water and timber. The river's course is punctuated by several significant whitewater features, including Quinns Rapids, Stubbs Rapids, and Pine Tree Rapids. These rapids, alongside Simmons Rapids, suggest the river's dynamic nature before it reaches the more tranquil waters of the Hay Creek Flowage.

To the north, the massive Turtle Flambeau Flowage dominates the upper reaches, with its shoreline accessed via Flambeau Dam Rd. The interior is crisscrossed by a network of local forest roads and trails such as Roddis Line Rd, Whitetail Trl, and Nature Rd. This 2015 survey reveals a terrain of interconnected lakes and wetlands, from Hoffman Lake to McKaskel Lake, punctuated by the distinctive landmark Bear Skull Rock.
