About this map

Lugerville sits at the eastern edge of a landscape defined by water and heavy timber, documented just as the 1970s began. The community is positioned near the South Fork Flambeau River, where Rocky Carry Rapids and Rocky Carry Park mark the river's descent. To the west, the massive Million Acre Swamp dominates the central terrain, bordered by the Kimberly-Clark Wildlife Area. This area serves as a significant intersection of conservation and industrial land management within the Flambeau River State Forest.

Tracing the northern reaches, the Flambeau River is harnessed by the Crowley Dam and its adjacent Powerplant. Transportation patterns are dictated by the wet terrain, with an Old Railroad Grade cutting through the marshlands toward Dankes Lake. Dozens of smaller bodies of water like Peters Lake and Betsy Lake are scattered across the quadrangle, illustrating the complex glacial drainage of the Price County highlands.
