About this map

The Saint Croix Wild and Scenic River defines the northwestern reaches of this terrain, part of the wider Saint Croix National Scenic Riverway at the border of Douglas and Washburn counties. The landscape is a complex mosaic of glacial water bodies, with the Totagatic River flowing through the southern half, feeding into the expansive Cranberry Lake. This 2022 survey illustrates the modern residential and recreational character of the Northwoods, showing the network of local roads such as Buckley Island Rd and S Whitefish Lake Rd that serve the many lakefronts.

Smaller water bodies like Spider Lake, Crystal Lake, and Middle Kimball Lake are surrounded by a high density of named roads and lanes, including Black Widow Rd and Seven Mile Lake Rd, reflecting decades of seasonal and year-round development. From the heights of Fire Hill Rd to the lowlands of Buckley Break, the map documents the region's transition from a wild river corridor to a popular upper-Midwest lake district.
