1972 Map of Reservoir Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Nicolet National Forest dominates this northern Wisconsin landscape, characterized by a complex network of glacial kettle lakes and springs. Centered on the boundary between Wolf River and Townsend, the area is defined by the expansive Reservoir Pond and a dense collection of smaller waters including Mary Lake and Explosion Lake. The terrain is marked by significant hydrological features like the Jones Spring Impoundment and named springs such as Mc Caslin Spring and Barney Spring, which feed into the South Branch Oconto River. Evidence of former industrial activity is visible in the long Railroad Grade that cuts across the northern section, while recreational development is anchored by the Ada Lake Lookout Tower and organized sites like the Boot Lake Campground. The presence of several gravel pits suggests local resource extraction amidst the heavily forested hills and wetlands.
