About this map

The town of Pembine serves as the focal point for this Northeastern Wisconsin landscape, situated at the junction of Us-8 and Us-141. This 2013 survey illustrates a region defined by its complex hydrography, particularly the winding courses of the North Br Pemebonwon River and South Br Pemebonwon River. Notable cataracts including Smalley Falls and Long Slide Falls highlight the rapid elevation changes along these waterways as they move through the forested terrain of Marinette County.

Local history and recreation are centered around a dense cluster of water bodies such as Lake Chapman, Otter Lake, and Smith Lake. The infrastructure of the era is marked by the Pembine Lookout Tower south of town and a network of rural routes like Kremlin Rd and Long Slide Rd that provide access to the various lakefronts and river reaches. The mapping reflects a modern balance between small-town settlement and the preservation of the surrounding water resources.
