The community of New Post sits at the southern edge of the massive Lake Chippewa impoundment, a landscape defined by an intricate network of bays, islands, and narrows. This 2015 survey reveals the complex shoreline of the Chippewa Flowage, featuring numerous named points and islands such as Slivers Point, Darrow Island, and Scott Island. To the north and east, the Chequamegon National Forest provides a buffer of protected woodland, sheltering smaller water bodies like Callahan Lake and the Fork Chief River. The southern half of the map transitions into more settled areas with a dense grid of local roads like Chippewa Flowage Rd and Resvn Hwy 4, alongside smaller lakes including Blueberry Lake and Two Boys Lake. The map serves as a contemporary record of this Northwoods recreation and residential hub, tracing the many inlets from Milwaukee Bay to the Cranberry Narrows.
