1961 Map of Iron Lake SE

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Chequamegon National Forest dominates this landscape in northern Wisconsin, where a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands defines the geography. The map reflects a mid-century period of forest management and outdoor recreation, featuring numerous boat access points and campgrounds near Long Lake and Twin Bear Lake. To the north, the Moquah Barrens Wildlife Area highlights a distinct ecological zone, while the Northern Pacific railroad line and a prominent Pipeline corridor cut through the timberland. Genealogical interest is centered on Tripp Cem near the northern boundary. Smaller water bodies like Steckbaur Lake, Hicks Lake, and Five Island Lake are scattered throughout the Washburn Ranger District, illustrating the complex hydrology of the region before significant modern development altered these shores.
