About this map

The North Fork Eau Claire River and South Fork Eau Claire River converge in this densely wooded region along the border of Eau Claire and Clark Counties. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of wetlands and small tributaries, including Horse Cr and Surveyor Cr, which feed into the primary river systems. In the eastern portion of the quadrangle, the Iron Run Flowage and Spruce Lake represent significant water bodies amidst the timbered terrain.

Logistics and access to these remote reaches are facilitated by a grid of rural routes such as Co Hwy H, Rock Dam Rd, and several specialized forest tracks like Canoe Landing Forest Rd and S Butler Forest Rd Ln. The presence of Goat Ranch Rd and Schoolhouse Ln suggests the localized agricultural and community history of this Northwoods environment, where the river-and-forest economy has long dictated the patterns of human settlement and transport.
