About this map

Lake Evelyn and the surrounding Northwoods landscape of Iron County define this 2013 survey of the Wisconsin-Michigan border. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of glacial lakes and watercourses, including Black River Lake, Long Lake, and American Lake. The Montreal River serves as a prominent natural boundary in the western portion of the quadrangle, while the Black River and its tributary, the South Fork Black River, flow through the central region.

Evidence of the area's timber history and modern land management is found in the numerous graded routes like Mosinee Grade Rd and Underwood Grade Rd that crisscross the forest. Notable landmarks for local navigation and history include the Pine Lake Lookout Tower and the distinctive Horseshoe Island located within the southern reach of Long Lake. This map captures a specific moment in the rural development of Oma, showing the transition from old logging grades to established local connectors like Co Hwy-G.
