About this map

Solon Springs serves as the focal point of this northern Wisconsin landscape, situated along the western shore of Upper Saint Croix Lake. The community is organized around a grid of residential streets like E Maple Ave and E Baldwin Ave, while the Solon Springs Municipal Airport and the historic Evergreen Cem occupy the peripheries. This area is defined by its complex glacial hydrology, where the Saint Croix River headwaters emerge.

South of the village, the landscape opens into the Saint Croix Flowage and various smaller water bodies such as Lower Ox Lake and Muskrat Lake. The settlement of Gordon marks the southern edge of the survey, where the river narrows past Wilcox Island. The presence of Sauntry to the north and numerous family-named roads like S Ellen Smith Rd and Mertzig Pkwy indicates a history of local land ownership and rural development through the mid-20th century.
