1970 Map of Kennedy

About this map

Kennedy serves as the primary landmark in this 1970 survey of the heavily forested borderlands between Sawyer, Ashland, and Price Counties. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the Chequamegon National Forest and the Flambeau River State Forest, where the terrain is punctuated by a dense network of glacial lakes and waterways. Notable water bodies including Lake Alice, Lake Annie, and Round Lake are connected by streams like Pine Creek and Hay Creek, which eventually drain toward the Flambeau River. Evidence of local industry and recreational utility is found in several scattered Gravel Pits and a dedicated Snowmobile Trail cutting through the woods. A Gaging Station on the river indicates the importance of water management in this timber-rich region of the Chippewa territory.
