About this map

The Chequamegon - Nicolet National Forest dominates this northern Wisconsin landscape, where the confluence of several vital waterways shapes the terrain. The North Fork Jump River and the South Fork Jump River wind through the township boundaries of Catawba, Ogema, and Westboro, creating a complex network of wetlands and drainage basins. A significant geographical marker, the Fourth Principal Meridian Road, runs north-south through the center of the sheet, providing a primary surveying baseline for this portion of Price and Taylor Counties.

Local topography is punctuated by elevations such as Hallberg Hill and numerous small drainages like Little Mondeaux Creek and Silver Creek. This 2005 revision highlights a region defined by its timber and water resources, with numerous gravel pits scattered near the South Fork Jump River indicating ongoing local infrastructure and road maintenance. The landscape reflects the transition between managed forest land and the rural townships that border the Medford - Park Falls Ranger District.
