Lake of the Falls and the surrounding Iron County wetlands define this northern Wisconsin landscape, where the Turtle River feeds into the northern reaches of the Turtle Flambeau Flowage. The map reveals a high density of glacial lakes and marshy lowlands, including the distinctive trio of First Black Lake, Second Black Lake, and Third Black Lake. In the northeast corner, the settlement of Carter sits along Old 51 Rd, representing one of the few concentrated areas of habitation in an otherwise water-dominated geography.
