About this map

Pembine serves as the primary hub in this corner of Marinette County, situated where the Soo Line railroad cuts through the northwoods landscape. The community is anchored by local landmarks such as St Margaret Ch and the Pembine Cem, while the Pembine Lookout Tower stands to the east, overlooking a territory defined by timber and water. This area is a patchwork of lakes and moving water, with the North Branch Pemebonwon River and Spikehorn Creek draining the forest toward notable cataracts like Smalley Falls.

Public land and resource extraction shape the land use here, evidenced by Long Slide Falls County Park and several Gravel Pits along the road network. To the north, the small settlement of Valerio marks a crossroads near the Niagara boundary. Local recreation is centered on numerous water bodies, including Timms Lake, Lake Shannon, and Wolf Lake, many of which feature dedicated public access points for those navigating the backcountry.
