2018 Map of Iron Lake NE

About this map

The Iron River National Fish Hatchery anchors the southwestern portion of this landscape, situated near the headwaters of the E Fork Iron River and Middle Cr. This area of Bayfield County is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, including the Flag River and its eastern fork, which carve through the heavily timbered terrain of the Chequamegon National Forest. The map reveals a specialized transportation network consisting of forest service roads like Battleax Grade and recreational paths such as the Blue Trail and Red Trail. These routes, alongside numerous family-named roads such as Hjalmer Rd and Mcinerney Rd, reflect a region defined by federal conservation management, local timber heritage, and watershed protection in the Lake Superior drainage basin.
