2016 Map of Oconto Falls South

About this map

The Oconto River defines the northern edge of this landscape, powering the hydroelectric potential of the reservoir at Oconto Falls. This survey illustrates the transition from the concentrated town grid of Oconto Falls to the dispersed agricultural and wetland interior of Oconto County. Small settlements like Morgan and Sampson serve as local anchors for the surrounding farmsteads, while Krakow sits at the southwestern corner along the Shawano and Oconto county line. The interior is heavily shaped by the glacial heritage of the region, evident in the extensive Morgan Marsh and numerous small kettle ponds such as Dombroski Lake and Delzer Lake. Local history is preserved at sites like Saint Johns Cem and Volk Cem, which remain as fixed points amidst a network of section roads and drainage ways like the N Br Pensaukee River.
