1971 Map of Lac Du Flambeau

About this map

Lac du Flambeau serves as the focal point of this Northwoods landscape, where the Lac du Flambeau Indian Reservation Boundary meets the Chequamegon National Forest. The map detail reveals a complex aquatic geography defined by large bodies like Crawling Stone Lake and Long Interlaken Lake, alongside smaller, uniquely named waters such as Broken Bow Lake and Tippecanoe Lake. Human activity and administration are noted through the Indian Agency, a Cem, and a local campground. Significant lake features like Strawberry Island and Moss Lake are documented with depth curves provided by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. The transport network of the early 1970s is represented by routes like Indian Village Road and Old Prairie Road, tracing the ways people moved through these woods and wetlands before modern development shifted the local footprint.
