About this map

Oconto serves as the focal point for this 2015 survey, situated where the Oconto River flows toward Green Bay. The landscape is defined by the convergence of several waterways, including the winding course of the Little River and the marshes surrounding Thomas Slough. These drainage patterns shaped the early development of the region, creating a patchwork of agricultural land and wetlands north of the city center. Along the southern edge of the quadrangle, the Oconto-J Douglas Bake Memorial Airport provides a modern landmark near the river's bend.

Local history is preserved in the location of Evergreen Cem and Saint Josephs Cem, both situated on the outskirts of the primary settlement. The road network reflects the rural character of Oconto County, with many routes bearing the names of early educational landmarks such as Behnke School Rd and Maple Grove School Rd. Other distinctive local corridors like Hogsback Rd and Five Corners Rd highlight the specific topography and intersection points that have historically anchored this northern Wisconsin community.
