1971 Map of Loretta

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Loretta and Draper serve as the primary nodes of activity in this northern Wisconsin landscape, situated along a corridor defined by the Brunet River and the expansive Chequamegon National Forest. The 1971 field check reveals a region heavily defined by its waterways and timber resources, where the East Fork Chippewa River and the Flambeau River mark the boundaries of public forest lands. This survey documents the seasonal and recreational character of the area, noting several gravel pits and the Brunet Lookout Tower atop the rising terrain. Beyond the clustered residences of the small settlements, the map traces a Snowmobile Trail and names numerous water bodies such as Bear Lake, Loretta Lake, and Blaisdell Lake, reflecting the region's transition into a destination for outdoor enthusiasts in the latter half of the twentieth century.
