About this map

Namekagon Lake dominates the upper half of this northern Wisconsin landscape, characterized by an intricate shoreline of points and islands. Located within the Chequamegon National Forest, the region shows a dense network of forest service roads and local lanes serving the settlement of Namakagon. Named points such as Missionary Point, Juneks Point, and Eagle Point define the lake’s many bays, including Michigan Bay and Janes Bay.

Southward across the Bayfield Co Sawyer Co line, the terrain transitions into a mosaic of smaller water bodies and flowages. Features like Ghost Lake, Lynch Creek Flowage, and Goodwin Lake are connected by a system of small streams including Ghost Cr and Lynch Cr. This map documents the persistent shoreline development and recreational geography of the area, from the larger islands like Anderson Island and Paines Island to the narrow forest tracks like Mc Cloud Lake Rd.
