1938 Map of Lac Du Flambeau

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Flambeau Indian Reservation dominates this northern Wisconsin landscape, revealing a complex network of glacial lakes and wetlands before the era of intensive modern development. The village of Lac du Flambeau and nearby Lac du Flambeau Sta serve as central nodes, connected to the wider world via the Chicago and Northwestern railroad and State Hy No 70. This 1938 survey documents the early 20th-century character of the region, including small outposts like Marlands with its Marlands Sch and the watchful Flambeau Fire Tower. From the massive Willow Reservoir in the south to the intricate shorelines of Pokegama Lake and Fence Lake, the map traces a transition between managed timberlands in the Northern Highland State Forest and the enduring waters of the Swamsauger watershed.
