2022 Map of Lily

About this map

Lily and the surrounding timberlands of the Nicolet National Forest define this area of Langlade County. The landscape is characterized by its complex hydrography, where the Lily River winds southward to meet a series of challenging white-water features including Saint Claire Rapids, Big Slough Gundy Rapids, and Big Sheen Rapids. These rapids, alongside numerous natural outlets like Lily Springs and Poor Farm Spring, suggest a terrain shaped by the glacial history of northern Wisconsin. Settlement is concentrated along the north-south corridor of the Wolf River State Trl, with small communities like Freeman and Hollister serving as local landmarks. Genealogists can locate the Lily Cem west of the river, while naturalists will note the significant reach of Dennison Swamp and Tura Lake in the southern portion of the survey.
