2015 Map of Oulu

About this map

The Bois Brule River snakes northward through the heart of this landscape, its path marked by distinctive natural features such as Shale Falls, May Ledges, and the Highway Thirteen Rapids. This 2015 data reflects a rural topography defined by a tight grid of family-named roads, spanning the border between Douglas and Bayfield counties. Settlements like Waino and Oulu serve as central points for a community established by northern European immigrants, evidenced by the high concentration of local cemeteries including Oulu Cem and Ever Rest Cem. The terrain reveals a transition from the highlands down toward the Lake Superior shoreline, with numerous small tributaries like Fish Cr and Trask Cr cutting through the glacial soils. The presence of Copper Hill Rd hints at the region's mineral interests, while the dense network of lanes like Tikkanen Rd and Leppela Rd provides a detailed look at contemporary land ownership patterns.
