2015 Map of Long Lake

About this map

Nicolet National Forest dominates the landscape of this northern Wisconsin wilderness, where the boundary between Forest County and Florence County runs through a dense network of glacial lakes and river systems. The settlement of Newald sits in the southwestern portion of the map near Forest Home Cem, serving as a small hub amidst the timberland. Water defines the region's geography, with the Popple River and its tributary, the Little Popple River, winding through the forest floor while the northern edge is marked by the Pine River. Significant water bodies including Long Lake, Halsey Lake, and Fay Lake are connected by a series of outlets and sloughs, such as Halsey Lake Slough, which highlight the complex hydrology of the lake country. Local history is anchored by sites like Long Lake Cem near the eastern shore of its namesake lake.
