2015 Map of Mellen

About this map

The Bad River and its numerous tributaries, including Tyler Forks and Devils Creek, carve through this northern Wisconsin landscape as it appeared in the early 21st century. The city of Mellen serves as the primary hub, where local routes like South Main Street and Lake Drive connect the community to the surrounding timber and recreational lands. To the south, the settlement of Cayuga sits near a local Cemetery, while Foster Junction marks a point of historical transit interest. Much of the western half of the map is dominated by the Chequamegon National Forest, where drainages such as Gravelly Brook and Hardscrabble flow through the wooded terrain. High points like Eagles Peak overlook a series of glacial water bodies, including Meder Lake, Long Lake, and Murphy Lake, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Lake Superior highland region.
