2010 Map of Somerset North

About this map

Somerset marks the southern entry point to a landscape defined by its complex waterways and hydroelectric history during the early 21st century. The Apple River meanders prominently through the terrain, punctuated by engineering features like the Apple River Falls D 64.5 Dam and the Riverdale Dam. These structures represent the managed descent of the river as it moves toward its confluence with the Saint Croix River, which forms the western boundary of the map. Away from the river valleys, the topography is dotted with glacial features including Bass Lake, Pine Lake, and Turtle Lake. The grid of rural roads, such as Polk Saint Croix Rd and Rice Lake Rd, connects scattered residential clusters and agricultural holdings, illustrating the modern rural character of Saint Croix County at this time.
