1965 Map of Lake Lucerne

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Nicolet National Forest dominates this mid-1960s landscape, encompassing a dense network of glacial lakes and northern Wisconsin waterways. The topography is defined by significant elevations like Sugarbush Hill, which serves as a central landmark overlooking the surrounding lake country. This survey illustrates the intricate hydrology of Forest County, where the Peshtigo River and Rat River drain through a terrain dotted with named basins including the expansive Lake Lucerne and Wabikon Lake. Cultural footprints are sparse but notable, reflecting the area's use for recreation and utility, such as the Boy Scout Camp on the shores of Hardwood Lake and a pipeline corridor cutting through the northern timber. The mapping of numerous gravel pits suggests the local materials used for road building in this heavily wooded region, while spring-fed features like Otter Springs and Johnson Springs highlight the high water table of the glacial drift.
