1971 Map of Spider Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Chequamegon National Forest defines the lake-strewn landscape of this Sawyer County region during the early 1970s. The map reveals an intricate network of glacial water bodies, from the sprawling reach of Spider Lake to smaller basins like Whiplash Lake and One Shoe Lake. Modern depth curves provide underwater topography for several lakes, reflecting a period of active natural resource management by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. Human activity is centered around the Townhall and a sparse grid of local roads like Sportsman Road and Townhall Road. To the south, the Tiger Cat Flowage is controlled by the Tiger Cat Dam, while the Chief River State Wildlife Management Area preserves the wetland corridor along the Chief River Road. This survey documents a quiet era of recreational development and forest conservation before the intensification of modern lakeside estates.
