About this map

Minocqua and Hazelhurst anchor this detailed study of the Northwoods lake country in the early 1980s. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, from the expansive Tomahawk Lake and Minocqua Lake to smaller basins like Katherine Lake and Blue Lake. The presence of the Bearskin State Park Trail, following the path of an Abandoned Railroad, illustrates the transition of former industrial corridors into recreational assets.

Institutional and community landmarks are scattered throughout the region, including Camp American Legion and the McNaughton State Camp near Little Tomahawk Lake. Local history is preserved at Lakeside Cem and the Minocqua-Hazelhurst Sch, while the map also documents mid-century cultural staples like the Drive-in Theater near Hazelhurst. The map provides a clear look at the Northern Highland-American Legion State Forest and specialized sites such as the Kemps Biological Center on the shores of Tomahawk Lake.
