About this map

Kennan and Catawba serve as the primary hubs in this part of Price County, situated along the east-west corridor of US-8. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including the North Fork Jump River in the southeast and numerous smaller streams such as Skinner Cr, Old Mill Cr, and Web Cr. This area of northern Wisconsin is characterized by its glacial hydrology, evidenced by scattered water bodies like Lake Sixteen, Lake Seven, and Perch Lake.

A notable landmark, the Harmony Lookout Tower, stands centrally between the two villages, reflecting the region's managed forest environment. The road network is a mix of county highways like Co HWY-J and numerous local family-named lanes, such as Kastner Ln, Novak Rd, and Skinner Creek Rd, which provide important clues for genealogical research and local property history. The interplay between these small settlements and the surrounding wetlands and timberland remains the defining characteristic of this rural landscape.
