2013 Map of Pike Lake

About this map

Pike Lake and the South Fork Flambeau River anchor this aquatic landscape in northern Wisconsin, where a intricate network of glacial lakes and wetlands defines the geography. The presence of the Sentinal Point Lookout Tower near Miles Lake indicates the importance of fire surveillance within these heavily wooded stretches of the Northwoods. Recreational infrastructure is established through sites like Twin Lakes Campground and Emily Lake Campground, connected by a web of forest routes including Chequamegon Forest Trl and Twin Lakes Rd. The map illustrates a region managed for both conservation and seasonal tourism, with numerous smaller water bodies such as Apeekwa Lake, Amik Lake, and Turner Lake feeding into the river system. Transportation is largely limited to unpaved access roads and State Hwy 70, which skirts the southern edge of the lake complexes.
