2015 Map of Lake Gordon

About this map

Nicolet National Forest dominates this northern Wisconsin landscape, where the northern border of Forest County meets Florence County. The area is characterized by a dense network of glacial lakes and river headwaters, including the Peshtigo River and the S Br Popple River. This 2015 survey reveals a terrain defined by forestry and recreation, with numerous named water bodies such as Lake Gordon, Lake Laura, and Rat Lake providing focal points for the surrounding woodlands. Evidence of the region's logging heritage and modern forest management is visible in the grid of Forest Service roads, such as National Forest Road 2127 and Newald Rd. The small settlement of Bonneval stands as one of the few named community markers in this largely undeveloped wilderness, while family-named routes like Danielczek Rd and Schauman Rd hint at the local families who have inhabited these woods.
