1947 Map of Moquah

About this map

Moquah and Ino anchor this post-war landscape in northern Wisconsin, captured during a period when the timber-driven economy had shifted toward established rural settlements and fire protection infrastructure. The presence of the Moquah Fire Tower and Washburn Fire Tower, along with the Brinks Ranger Sta, highlights the era's focus on forest management across the central and northern townships. Transportation networks define the southern portion of the sheet, where the Chicago and Northwestern railroad parallels the State Highway 2 corridor, connecting the Ino Sta with Benoit further south.
