About this map

Nicolet National Forest dominates this landscape in northern Wisconsin, where the boundary lines of Forest, Oconto, and Marinette Counties converge. The terrain is defined by the prominent ridge of Mc Caslin Mountain, which serves as a backdrop for the McCaslin Lookout Tower. The northern reaches are characterized by the winding path of the Rat River, interspersed with numerous rapids and a secluded Cem near its banks.

Water is a defining element here, from the larger Peshtigo River to a dense network of smaller bodies like Deer Lake Flowage, Evergreen Lake, and McCaslin Lake. Human activity is marked primarily by recreational and utility points, such as the Boat Landing sites and scattered Gravel Pit operations. The intricate hydrography of creeks including Newman Creek and Thunder Creek highlights a complex drainage system through the dense timberland.
