About this map

The boundary between Marathon and Wood Counties runs through this central Wisconsin landscape, dominated by the intricate wetlands and water management systems of the Little Eau Pleine River. The terrain is defined by a dense network of flowages, including Teal Flowage, Fisher Flowage, and N Smoky Hill Flowage, which surround the prominent high ground of Smoky Hill. This area serves as a significant drainage basin for the Big Eau Pleine Reservoir to the northeast.

Evidence of local industry and rural infrastructure is found at the Soapstone Pit in the southeast and the small settlement of Rangeline near the northern edge. The geography is a complex mix of named pools like Sixteen Pool and Ten Pool, alongside established rural roads such as Yellow Stone Rd and Co Line Rd. This 2015 survey illustrates how modern conservation and water management have shaped the land use patterns around Honey Island.
