1945 Map of Meteor

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The timbered lands and glacial waters of northern Wisconsin are captured in this 1945 survey, showcasing a landscape defined by its rural school districts and expanding transportation routes. Small settlements like Yarnell and Meteor are connected by a network of county highways and the Chicago and North Western Railway, while an Old R R Grade southeast of Deer Lake indicates the area's evolving industrial footprint. The map is particularly notable for its density of rural schoolhouses, including the Sentinel Ash Sch and Blue Hills Sch, which served the scattered farming communities of Sawyer and Rusk Counties.
