About this map

Newald and the surrounding Forest County wilderness are defined by a complex network of waterways and early 21st-century timberlands. The landscape is dominated by the Peshtigo River and its numerous tributaries, including Kersten Creek and Camp Eight Creek, which carve through the dense north woods. Significant marshlands like Marsh Number Ten and several small glacial lakes, such as Van Zile Lake and Ross Lake, punctuate the terrain.

Small settlements such as Laona Junction and Cavour indicate the intersection of historical rail routes and local roads like County Hwy O. The presence of the Consolidated Lookout Tower and Big Joe Campground highlights the area's continued use for forest management and recreation. This survey provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure near the headwaters of the South Branch Popple River, where local roads like Jaquet Rd and Newald Rd connect scattered homesteads and woodland tracts.
