2013 Map of Morse

About this map

The Bad River and Moose River define the hydrography of this northern Wisconsin landscape, where the settlements of Cayuga and Morse anchor the local road network. The area is characterized by a dense system of forest roads, including Forest Rd 181 and Forest Rd 1335, which navigate the complex drainage basins of Brush Cr and Spillerberg Cr. Notable water bodies such as Spillerberg Lake, Torrey Lake, and Seagels Lake are scattered throughout the quadrangle, reflecting the glaciated terrain of Ashland County. Small crossroads like Popcorn Corners at the junction of State Hwy 77 provide local reference points for researchers. This 2013 survey illustrates the modern state of timber access and conservation lands, tracing the paths of numerous named creeks like Muskellunge Cr and Dryden Cr through the north woods.
