About this map

Belden Swamp dominates the northern reaches of this landscape in Douglas County, defining a complex drainage network that feeds the surrounding river systems. The small settlement of Moose Junction serves as the primary focal point, situated where Moose Rd meets E Co Rd M. The terrain is shaped by the slow movement of water through the Spruce River and Toad Cr, which eventually give way to the Upper Tamarack River in the southeast.

A network of specialized routes, including the Summit Tower Fire Ln, E Summit Trl, and S Spruce River Trl, suggests a history of forest management and fire observation. These trails, along with roads like Mihna Rd and Cummings Rd, provide access to the dense wetlands and low-lying areas. The map details a quiet, water-rich region where the boundary between land and swamp is constantly shifting along features like Choses Brook.
