1969 Map of Perkinstown

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

Perkinstown sits at the heart of this Northwoods landscape, serving as a focal point for the surrounding Chequamegon National Forest. The map documents a transition in land use during the late 1960s, where traditional forestry and fire lookouts like the Perkinstown Lookout and the Foss Lake Forest Service Station coexist with emerging recreational interests. The complex glacial topography is evident in the dense concentration of kettle lakes such as Lake Eleven, Hulls Lake, and Richter Lake. Conservation and leisure are prioritized through the Ice Age National Scenic Trail and the Kathryn Lake Campground and Picnic Area. This period shows a deliberate management of the forest, including the designation of the Semi-Primitive Nonmotorized Area and the winding Perkinstown Motorized Trail, reflecting the dual nature of wilderness preservation and active outdoor recreation in Taylor County.
