2011 Map of New Post

About this map

Lake Chippewa dominates this northern Wisconsin landscape, its complex shoreline and island-dotted waters created by the flowage of the West Fork Chippewa River. The settlement of New Post sits along the southern edge of the flowage, serving as a focal point for the surrounding network of lakeside roads and forest access routes. The map detail reflects a region deeply shaped by water management and recreation, anchored by the Callahan Lake Dam and the Blueberry Campground. Numerous named landforms emerge from the reservoir, including Eagles Nest Island, Pork Barrel Island, and Hermans Landing. The intricate geography of points and bays, such as Pine Point and Slivers Point, suggests a landscape tailored for seasonal residency and sporting, where the original river system has been transformed into a sprawling aquatic maze.
