1939 Map of Long Lake

About this map

Logging industry infrastructure and remote lakeside settlements define this 1939 survey of northeastern Wisconsin. The Chicago and Northwestern railroad is the central artery of the landscape, supporting numerous timber-related outposts such as Dahls Siding, Lindels Spur, and Moore & Montambo Spur. These spurs and sidings highlight the industrial character of the Nicolet National Forest during the late Depression era, where the Long Lake CCC Camp was active in reforestation and conservation efforts.
