About this map

The Chequamegon National Forest anchors the eastern portion of this Bayfield County landscape, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of river forks and forest access roads. The headwaters of the Flag River and its E Fork Flag River dominate the northern sections, while the southern reaches are drained by the E Fork Iron River and Middle Cr.

Local infrastructure is represented by several distinct corridors, including the Port Wing Line Rd and the intriguing Battleax Grade, which hints at the area's history of logging and timber transport. Family and localized names appear throughout the road network, such as Dale Bast and Hjalmer Rd, alongside resource-oriented sites like Orienta Pit Rd. This 2015 survey provides a modern view of these protected public lands and the hydrographic patterns that have shaped northern Wisconsin's development.
