About this map

The Peshtigo River winds through the northern reaches of this Wisconsin landscape, where the boundary between Marinette County and Oconto County dictates the survey and road patterns of the early twenty-first century. This territory is defined by its transition from the northern forests into a grid of rural lanes and family-named roads. The Little Peshtigo River cuts across the central sections, creating a natural drainage system that influenced the placement of routes like Tower Hill Rd and Red School Rd. The map reveals a high concentration of wetlands and small water bodies characteristic of the Upper Midwest's glacial geography, showing how modern property lines and local infrastructure such as Little River Rd and Co Rd Q respect these ancient environmental features.
