About this map

The village of Mattoon and the unincorporated community of Phlox anchor this Wisconsin landscape, where the local economy and geography are defined by the winding course of the Red River and its various tributaries. Modern aviation footprints are visible at Kitty Hawk Estates Airport and Shelley Airport, showing how the rural terrain near the Langlade and Shawano county lines has integrated private airstrips into its traditional forest and field patterns.

A complex network of glacial water bodies, including Upper Demlow Lake, Lower Demlow Lake, and Moose Lake, dot the northern and central sections. This hydrography is further detailed by the Phlox WP269 Dam on Phlox Lake, indicating local water management along the West Branch Red River. For those researching local heritage, the Norwood Cemetery and numerous family-named water features like Meyer Lake and Hilger Lake offer specific geographic points of reference for the early 21st century.
