1980 Map of Medford
USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
The Chequamegon National Forest dominates the central landscape of Taylor County in this 1980 survey, illustrating a region defined by its timbered tracts and glacial water systems. The Soo Line railroad provides a primary north-south transportation corridor through the settlements of Medford, Stetsonville, Whittlesey, and Westboro, reflecting the historic rail-reliant economy of the Wisconsin northwoods. In the western portion of the map, the North Fork Jump River and South Fork Jump River converge near Tony and Glen Flora, while conservation lands like the Pershing State Wildlife Area and Township Corners State Wildlife Management Area preserve the area's natural state. Significant elevation points such as Lawrence Lookout and Rib River Lookout offer vantage points over a terrain dotted with named features like Otter Lake and the Black River.
