About this map

The Brunet River and its multiple tributaries define this northern Wisconsin landscape where Sawyer and Rusk counties meet. This 2018 survey illustrates a complex hydrological system characterized by the winding courses of Nail Cr, Elm Cr, and Tupper Cr. The topography is shaped by these watercourses as they feed into larger systems like the Thornapple River and the Little Thornapple River to the south.

Transportation throughout this timbered region is marked by a grid of local access roads such as Bissell Grade Rd, W Hogsback Rd, and the distinctively named Old Hwy J. These routes provide essential passage through a terrain of low ridges and wetlands, supporting the rural character of the borderlands between Sawyer and Rusk counties. The map offers a clear view of the modern infrastructure and natural drainage patterns that sustain this quiet corner of the state.
