1981 Map of Phelps

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The town of Phelps serves as the central hub of this Northwoods landscape, situated on the eastern shore of North Twin Lake. This 1981 survey documents a region defined by its dense network of glacial lakes and the convergence of two major federal lands: the Nicolet National Forest and the Ottawa National Forest. The historical Military Road winds through the terrain, connecting local settlements and resource hubs near the Wisconsin-Michigan border. Local industry and infrastructure are represented by several Gravel Pits and a lookout tower on Military Hill, reflecting the area's dual focus on timber management and recreation. Large water bodies like Long Lake and Big Sand Lake dominate the eastern half of the map, while numerous smaller basins like Afterglow Lake and Sugar Maple Lake dot the forested interior.
