About this map

The Chippewa River carves through the landscape near the settlement of Jim Falls, where industrial and natural water management systems are prominently displayed. This 2010 survey details the sophisticated network of dams regulating local waters, including the Jim Falls 2WP426 Dam, Kalepp G4711 Dam, and Bowe Wi-2-361 Dam. These structures manage the flow between numerous named water bodies such as Old Abe Lake, Jim Lake, and Mud Lake, illustrating the heavy modification of the river's path for power and recreation.

Away from the riverbanks, the terrain is dotted with small glacial lakes like Cornell Lake and Popple Lake, connected by a grid of rural avenues and county highways. For those researching local heritage, Copp Cemetery remains a key landmark south of the main settlement. The Old Abe State Trl follows the eastern bank of the river, providing a corridor for movement through this water-rich region of Wisconsin.
