About this map

The town of Mercer serves as the central hub of this Iron County landscape, positioned at the junction of several regional routes and surrounded by an intricate network of glacial lakes. In 2010, the community remained defined by its proximity to water, with Mercer Lake and San Domingo Lake bordering the town center. The presence of the Mercer Lookout Tower and the Mercer Cemetery south of town provides specific points of interest for local history and genealogy.

The hydrology of the region is highly developed, featuring the Little Turtle Flowage and the 3WR858 Dam along the Little Turtle River. Smaller settlements like Manitowish in the southeast corner anchor the outskirts, while family-named roads such as Hadley Rd and Boyeh Rd trace the paths to more secluded water bodies like Fierek Lake and One Man Lake. The map details a transition from concentrated town life to the scattered lakefront properties of northern Wisconsin.
