2015 Map of Laona

About this map

Nicolet National Forest encompasses the vast majority of this landscape, where the settlement of Laona serves as a primary hub. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of glacial lakes and waterways, including Silver Lake, Birch Lake, and the uniquely named Scattered Rice Lake. Just south of the main township, Blackwell Junction reflects the area's history of intersecting transit lines. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Laona Cem and trace old family-named routes such as Starks Settlement Rd and Connor Farm Rd. Smaller water bodies like Spring Pond and Kazmier Lake are tucked among the timberlands, while the Rat River and numerous creeks like Camp Eight Cr and Whiting Cr drain the forest floor. The presence of Heritage Acres Airport north of the main settlement indicates the modern infrastructure supporting this remote timber and recreation region.
