About this map

The confluence of the South Fork Flambeau River and several major tributaries defines this Rusk County landscape during the mid-1940s. The river's power is harnessed at the Big Falls Dam & Power Plant, which created the Big Falls Flowage upstream. This era marks a transition in land use, visible in the designated Flambeau River State Forest and the presence of the CCC Rusk Camp (Abandoned), reflecting Depression-era conservation work in the Wisconsin Northwoods. Local infrastructure is anchored by the village of Ingram in the south, served by the Minneapolis Sault Ste Marie and Atlantic RR (Abandoned) line. Fire prevention is a clear priority for the timbered region, evidenced by the Cedar Rapids Fire Tower and Ladd Creek Fire Tower keeping watch over the townships of Winter, Big Falls, and True. Local genealogy is preserved through sites like the Swedish Lutheran Cem and Pioneer Sch.
