1970 Map of Medford NW

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Glacial topography and timberland define the Chequamegon National Forest in this 1970 snapshot of Taylor County. The landscape is heavily dotted with kettle lakes and wetlands, ranging from the prominent Sackett Lake and its Recreation Area to more secluded waters like Pechestein Lake and Bullhead Lake. Evidence of earlier industrial transport is visible in the long Old Railroad Grade that cuts across the southern portion of the map, passing near the Washington Flowage and through the townships of Hamel and Medford.
