About this map

The Nicolet National Forest encompasses this section of Northern Wisconsin, dominated by a dense network of waterways and timberland in Florence County. The landscape is defined by the eastward flow of the Pine River in the north and the Popple River in the south, connected by numerous named tributaries including Riley Creek and Hendricks Creek. Evidence of earlier industrial activity remains visible in the Old Railroad Grade that cuts through the western terrain, while more modern recreational development is noted at the Morgan Lake Campground and its nearby Picnic Area. Local landmarks such as the Chapel of St Pius X and several glacial water bodies like Halsey Lake and Lake Seventeen provide key reference points for those studying the mid-century development of this forested region.
